The Alpharetta Recreation, Parks and Cultural Services department offers up another unique opportunity for visitors to Alpharetta with Portrait Quilts in the Community Gallery at City Hall, 2 Park Plaza.

Participants in a class taught by Ben Hollingsworth took photos of individuals and converted them into a pieced design, then built quilts based on the designs.

This exhibit is on display 8:30 a.m. to 5 p m. weekdays through Jan. 31. For nights/weekend hours, look for orange dots on the calendar at www.alpharetta.ga.us/calendar.

Watch for this class to return in the Arts-Culture Spring Guide.
