    Spheres Inspired by Freehand Patchwork by Danny Amazonas at the National Quilt Museum

    QuiltMuseum.org/BlockOfTheMonth AUGUST 2019 Spheres inspired by Freehand Patchwork by Danny Amazonas at the National Quilt Museum Quilt: Levitate by Danny Amazonas AUGUST 2019 Inspiration Levitate by Danny Amazonas Freehand Patchwork by Danny Amazonas is on exhibit at the National Quilt Museum from July 12 – October 15. “I realized working with fabric is far more complicated than painting technique-wise. A fiber artist won’t be able to mix colors in a palette, but can collect an array of colors and shades of fabric in order to create a unique piece of art with a full spectrum of colors. I love to cut fabric in large chunks to show the beauty of textile designs, and those designers should be praised and credited as well. Every piece of my artwork is machine sewn with invisible thread free-motion stitches.” Danny’s use of color and value creates visual depth and movement in each quilt. This month’s Block of the Month pattern incorporates many of these elements so you can experiment with color, large-scale prints, and dimension. Page 2 AUGUST 2019 Quilter: Danny Amazonas “I was born in Taiwan and always loved art in Danny Amazonas all forms. As a jack-of-all-trades I tried painting, sculpture, making gold jewelry, professional floral design, and even got into international cuisine! In the early ‘80s, I was working with mosaic art using various materials. When I returned home to Taiwan in the ’90s, I discovered the world of colorful fabrics and the art of quilting. I perceived quilting as the art of sewing pieces of fabric together to create a beautiful design.

    RIGHTING AMERICA AT THE CREATION MUSEUM by Susan L. Trollinger and William Vance Trollinger, Jr. A Concise Overview • The Creation Museum is the crown jewel of the Answers in Genesis apologetics enterprise, an impressive and sophisticated visual argument on behalf of young Earth creationism and a highly politicized fundamentalism. • More than anything else, the Answers in Genesis enterprise (including the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter) is best understood as a Christian Right site that relentlessly and aggressively promotes a highly ideological and radically politicized young Earth creationism as true Christianity, and that aims its attacks on – in particular – academics, feminists, gays/lesbians, and political and religious liberals. • The Creation Museum and Answers in Genesis seek to shape, prepare, and arm millions of American Christians as uncompromising and fearless warriors for what it understands to be the ongoing culture war in America. • To understand how American politics got to be where it is in 2016 -- where Donald Trump is the Republican presidential nominee, and where "facts" seem to have little bearing on his popularity -- one very good place to start is the Creation Museum. • At the Creation Museum and (of course) Ark Encounter the Flood of Genesis 6-8 is very important: not only is it used to explain away mainstream geology, but it also describes an overwhelmingly violent past Judgment that prefigures the future Judgment that will result in slaughter and eternal damnation of billions of people not in the camp of True Christians. • As bizarre as it may seem – with its claim that the God of the Bible created the universe in six consecutive 24-hour days less than 10,000 years ago – the Creation Museum lies squarely within the mainstream of the American cultural, political, and religious right.

  • Ken Ham Biography

    Ken Ham Biography

    Ken A. Ham President/CEO Answers in Genesis Ken Ham is the president and co-founder of Answers in Genesis, an apologetics (i.e., Bible defending) ministry upholding the authority of the Bible from the first verse. The visionary behind the popular, high-tech Creation Museum near Cincinnati – which has had more than 2.5 million visitors in eight years – and also the future Ark Encounter, Ham is also a best-selling author, (“The Lie,” “Already Gone”) popular speaker, and host of a daily radio feature on 1,000 plus stations. Ham, a native of Australia, earned a bachelor’s degree in applied science (with an emphasis in environmental biology) from the Queensland Institute of Technology and a diploma of education at the University of Queensland in Brisbane. Upon graduation, Ham began his initial career as a science teacher in Australia’s public schools. He holds three honorary doctorates. In 1974, a friend from church told Ham about a book called “The Genesis Flood,” in which Drs. Henry Morris and John Whitcomb scientifically explain the geologic-transforming effects of Noah’s global Flood. Over 40 years later, it is appropriate that Ham will be opening a life-size Noah’s Ark south of Cincinnati (July 7, 2016). Burdened to tell others the facts supporting a biblical view of creation and the truth of Scripture, Ham spent his weekends speaking to various groups about creationism. In 1979, Ham left his teaching position and co-founded The Creation Science Foundation (CSF) out of his home. He borrowed money to build an extension onto his house and used a small retirement payment to buy the ministry’s first photocopier and electric typewriter.
