The National Museum of the American Coverlet is the first independent, year-round institution devoted to American woven coverlets.

NMAC gives coverlets the recognition and respect they deserve, while bringing their history to life.

The Museum opened in a portion of Bedford, Pennsylvania’s historic (1859) Common School building, in May of 2006. Since then, we have expanded – and continue to expand – right on schedule. Our formal, Grand Opening was held Saturday and Sunday, May 26 and 27, 2007.

We are open daily, seven days a week; and you are welcome to visit and see our progress.

NEW!! Printed Cotton and Canvas are here!
