UPCOMING EXHIBITS

BROKEN HISTORY:

CAVINESS CERAMICS

SEPTEMBER 10 – NOVEMBER 1

Brad and Bryan Caviness are brothers who make unique ceramic artwork in North Carolina. They combine their interests in history with talents for art and design to inspire an appreciation for monumental achievements in art and architecture, bring attention to the destruction of ancient sites, and generate an interest in preserving the ones that are still here, whether threatened by the slow progress of time, natural disaster or war.

I love all of the art exhibits because they each encompass at least one component of our core values. There is truly something for everyone here.
