LeRoy Barn Quilt Trail

The barn quilts of LeRoy began as a bicentennial project for the Town of LeRoy. The first quilt, “JELL-O Jigglers” was painted in July 2011 at the annual Oatka Festival. The goal was to have 24 quilts painted and erected in time for LeRoy’s Bicentennial event on June 8, 2012. In less than 10 months, over 70 barn quilts were near completion. Since that time more quilts have been added, and have come to represent the pride shared by the people of LeRoy, a town with a rich agricultural heritage and a vision for the future that will guarantee quality of life for generations to come. The Town of LeRoy welcomes you to discover over 100 scenic hand-painted barn quilts. Many of the quilts are on barns, but some residents have applied their creativity to the sides of sheds, garages, fences, their homes, and other outbuildings.

In 2019, a large purple and yellow barn quilt was placed inside the Village Hall in commemoration of, Delia Phillips, the first woman in LeRoy to vote in an election after New York State passed women's suffrage in 1917. In 2021, a display of over a dozen of LeRoy’s barn quilts was placed inside the Town Hall.

Each year, more barn quilts are added to LeRoy’s barn quilt trail making it one of the largest in New York State.
