Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) Northern California and Nevada members in a group show, Prism Play, a full spectrum of art quilts. The exhibition initially envisioned by Curator Cara Gulati, reflects a continuum of colorful art quilts traveling around the walls following the flow of a color wheel with no beginning or end. Sixty-two panels that were required to be consistent in size (15" wide by 45" high) were selected by juror Joen Wolfrom, creator of the Ultimate 3-in-1 Color Tool.

The exhibition is unique, developed with a 24-step color wheel as inspiration for individual creativity. Each participating artist selected their color, developed their design that was without limits as to theme, and created work with their chosen techniques and materials. Working in monochrome palettes was a challenge that each artist embraced and excelled with.
