SSQ Membership Benefits

The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum

Sunset Slope Quilters members have access to a limited number of special passes for the RMQM. The mission of The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum is to collect, preserve, exhibit, and educate the public about quilts; honor quilt-making traditions; and embrace the evolution of the art and craft of quilting.

Eugenia Mitchell, an 80-year-old Golden resident of humble means had a generous spirit and a passion for quilts. Her vision for a quilt museum was accomplished in 1990. Since then, the museum continues to serve as a trusted repository for treasured family heirlooms, historically significant quilts and cutting-edge contemporary quilts.

Visit the museum, located at 200 Violet Street, Suite 140 in Golden. The museum shop features a variety of gifts for everyone on your list including unique pieces by local artists.
