The Junction City Arts Council will present a quilt exhibit by Montika Allen-Atkinson, now on display in the Upper Gallery of the C.L. Hoover Opera House.

Montika, a retired educator with 37 years of service, is a self-taught quilter whose artistry spans traditional, modern, and social justice quilts. Her techniques, including self-dyed fabrics, thread art, and improvisational designs, have earned her recognition across the U.S. and internationally.

Notable works include her Harriet Tubman Quilt, now housed at the Harriet Tubman Museum &amp; Education Center in Maryland, and contributions to the Quilts of Valor Foundation. Montika’s quilts tell stories of creativity, perseverance, and community impact.

The exhibit is open to the public during Opera House hours.&nbsp;
