Janssen Animal Shelter, the La Grange Garden Club, the Colorado Valley Quilt Guild, La Grange Mainstreet & Visitors Bureau, and Texas Commission on the Arts.

*You do not need to be present to release your butterfly.  We have invited area school children to help us release butterflies for those who live too far away.  We will be filming this special event, and it will be made available on TQM’s YouTube Channel soon after the event.  So, feel free to make a wish and know that your butterfly is in good hands, while you are supporting the Texas Quilt Museum!  =)
