The museum is an independent nonprofit institution with approximately eight staff members, more than 250 volunteers, and a seven-member Board of Directors.

Exhibits and Collections

The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum's permanent collection houses over 550 quilts. These quilts range from early 1800s to contemporary art quilts and include the 101 pieces from Eugenia Mitchell's original donation. The collection is continuously expanding. The collection is available to search online through the Quilt Index.

The museum hosts four exhibits per year in its gallery as well as regular smaller exhibits from the collection or quilt artists. RMQM has exhibited local, national and international quilts and exhibits range in scope from historic quilts to modern and art quilts.[1]

The library is a self-supporting facility staffed entirely by volunteers. The public is welcome to visit the library to browse the collection and do research. RMQM members may borrow materials from the circulating collection. The Online Catalog is available for online browsing.
