The Great Lakes Seaway Trail 2012 Quilt Show, scheduled for March 17 and 18, 2012, promises to be our best show yet – a real quilting event! Interpreters dressed in historically-correct 1800’s period fashions will welcome you to commemorate the Bicentennial of the War of 1812. Due to the number of quilt entries this year we’re expanding our show venue to include the Seaway Trail Discovery Center – built in 1817 - plus two additional historic buildings all on West Main Street in Sackets Harbor, NY.
The historic 1817 Union Hotel building is the location of the Seaway Trail Discovery Center, Sackets Harbor, NY. Quilts will be on display here for the 12th Annual Quilt Show. |

The Augustus Sacket Mansion was built by the founder of the village in 1802. Today it houses the Sackets Harbor Visitors' Center and during the show our quilts will be on display here. |
The three sites will feature 1812 style quilts, vendors and demonstrators both days. Admission can be purchased at all sites and will include admission to all three buildings. All buildings are accessible and parking is free.
I hope photos will be uploaded
