The Quilt Association promotes quilting and patchwork from its base at The Minerva Arts Centre in Llanidloes, Mid Wales. It is a registered charity, run by volunteers, and focuses on the following activities: caring for its collection of antique quilts, many of which are from the local area; holding an annual summer exhibition, featuring antique and contemporary quilts; providing a programme of related workshops.

The Centre is used for other exhibitions, textile, crafts and arts related throughout the remainder of the year. Every month from March to December we provide a packed programme of exhibitions in our two large galleries. These include antique and contemporary patchwork and quilting, textile arts, and Vintage and Christmas Fairs.

The facilities can be hired, and are popular with other organisations for workshops, lectures and courses.
