Mother Earth Art Exhibition

4/20/2023

 
As we walk deeper into spring and celebrate Earth Day this month, we invite you to take a look at our planet through the lens of art. Mother Earth is a juried exhibition featuring the artwork of regional artists from the Hampton Roads area. Artists were asked to explore both the inherent beauty of our environment and the way it suffers at the hands of its inhabitants.

This juried exhibition features a multitude of works from textiles, ceramics and paper sculptures to watercolor, acrylic, and oil paintings. We love to see the variety of approaches artists take to explore our monthly exhibitions.
