A group of organizations affiliated with the University of Maine is looking for people of diverse cultures to produce 6- to 8-inch quilt squares and help create a Maine Poetry and Story Exchange quilt.

The documentary quilt will be archived by UMaine and displayed annually at the Maine Poetry and Story Exchange, being held this year April 27-28. The event is sponsored by the UMaine English department, the National Poetry Foundation, which has headquarters at the university, and SpiritWords Poetries Collaborative, which is affiliated with the University of Maine Foundation.
