Avondale Library
Originally a project of Bib & Tucker Sew-Op, The March Quilts incorporated as a nonprofit in 2023 with the mission of enhancing the intersection of advocacy and art. We are accomplishing that mission through exhibitions of our 16 quilts with themes that shed light on civil and human rights. As we wrap up the collection with our tenth and final iteration of community quilt-making, we plan on working in all 67 counties of Alabama.

Fiddlesticks Music
Kids know what they like. It's telling silly stories, playing games, and sharing new things. Our Interactive Rhythm Kids® classes tap into how big kids are wired to learn. Music games, rhythm pattern play, drumming, and more engage their creativity inspiring them to explore their musicality in new ways, both during and outside of class.
Bib & Tucker Sew-Op is Birmingham's hub for sewing activities that promote empowerment, education and ​economic opportunity. Bib & Tucker Sew-op is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to cultivating skills and community for those who sew or want to sew where everyone can be a teacher and a student. We aim to promote empowerment, education, and economic opportunity through sewing.


Quiet Space, Leave a Comment for the Festival
We all need a quiet space to reflect, regroup, and cool down on a warm day. Thank you to our great friends and neighbors at the Avondale Public Library for keeping the auditorium open for patrons who may be feeling overwhelmed or just need a minute to relax, such a beautiful thing that libraries offer this to our citizens year round. While you are there, grab a bottle of complimentary water (thanks Coca-Cola) and leave the festival a comment card about your experience! We'd love to hear what you think, and grow better, deeper, and more relevant to our communities.
