The business community of the Bedford County region is invited to this month's Business After Hours mixer, hosted by the National Museum of the American Coverlet. 

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

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

The Museum opened in Bedford, Pennsylvania’s historic (1859) former Common School building in May of 2006. Since then, it has welcomed visitors from around the world.

NMAC offers changing exhibitions of 80 to 100 coverlets at a time, along with early spinning wheels, barn frame looms and more.

During this special Business After Hours guests may view the current exhibit is entitled AMERICA UNDER COVER(LETS): The Foundation of Our Independence, as the NMAC salutes the 250th anniversary of our country's independence with a display of coverlets filled with symbols of patriotism, politics, history and other imagery of America.

 Enjoy appetizers provided by Fisher's Country Store, including their famous deli and vegetable platters, plus beverages, valuable networking and more.
