Artist Talk: Ann Flemings at the Neill-Cochran House Museum
Ann Flemings shares her art journey in this heartfelt and humorous talk, presented as part of Threads of Her Story: A Response to the Textile Collection of a Historical House Museum at the Neill-Cochran House Museum.
Hosted during Stories on the Lawn, the event invited storytellers to explore the theme of "repeating patterns." Co-produced by Susan Mack and Mike Mournighan, the evening highlighted the connections between art, history, and personal narratives.

The conversation continues on April 6 at 2:30 PM with a Moderated Panel Discussion featuring Ann, textile scholar Suzanne Labry, and Rowena Dasch, Executive Director of the NCHM.
The Threads of Her Story exhibition honors the often overlooked artistry and labor of the women who crafted not only quilts but also the garments of their time. These items reflect the rich cultural fabric of Austin from the late 19th century through the early 20th century. We invite you to explore the connection between fashion and function, art and utility, as seen through the textiles of the time.
The exhibition runs through May 25, 2025—don’t miss the chance to experience it in person!
