As visitors walk through the main entrance and into the Ellebracht Gallery, they may begin their tour at the left wall which showcases the few quilts that either survived the fire or were reconstructed from the fire. The second quilt from the left — constructed by Andrea O’Brien and named “Phoenix Arisen” — resembles flames and smoke. The original quilt, which was lost in the fire, was inspired by a photo of a sunset that O’Brien’s son took.
