Perennial Ties: A collective celebration of the creative spirit at Blackberry Farm & Blackberry Mountain
This year’s “Perennial Ties” exhibition is the third collective celebration of the arts representing Blackberry Farm and Blackberry Mountain. The excellent and rich variety of work chosen for this exhibition is evident of the individual creative spirit that happens from Blackberry team members, visiting artists and friends of the extended Blackberry community. Selections in this exhibition have been chosen by the individual artists to showcase their range of artistic expression. We invite you to view the gallery from February 3-28 in the Clayton Center for the Arts’ Blackberry Farm Gallery at Maryville College and hope you’ll join us for our exhibition reception on February 28 from 6pm-8pm.
Gallery hours are Monday-Friday from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.
