Follow Judy Chicago on Facebook and Instagram for the latest news and updates!

Through the generous gift of tapestry weaver Audrey Cowan and her husband Bob, the Museum of Arts and Design acquired the cycle of tapestries designed by Chicago and woven by Audrey Cowan, her longtime collaborator. The gift includes two major tapestries, The Creation and The Fall, from the Birth Project and the Holocaust Project, five other tapestries, and many of Chicago’s most important cartoons and studies. The Museum of Arts and Design also houses the archive documenting Audrey’s collaboration with Judy Chicago, providing a behind-the-scenes view of their creative process.
