The Mother Road just got a whole lot more colorful! Art Bits quilters were invited to help celebrate the opening reception for the Route 66 Centennial: Art Quilt Project on Sunday, July 12th, at the Red Cedar Inn Museum & Visitor Center in Pacific, MO. Visitors enjoyed free admission to view 66 unique 24″ x 24″ art quilts, each depicting a beloved stop along the historic highway — from Ted Drewes to the Blue Swallow Motel.

Guests got to meet the talented quilters behind the pieces, have them sign their Exhibit books, snap photos, and even grab a treat from the Snackin’ Safari ice cream truck parked out front.


The exhibit will be on display through September 15th, 2026 — mark your calendar for a visit!
