Collaborative Visual Storytelling Exhibit Shows Work from Many Local Artists Through July 8

The Life of Sarah Perkins by Rance Perkins

A collaborative art exhibition of local artists, entitled “Told and Untold Stories Through Visual Storytelling,” will remain on display through July 8 at the Washington Theatre Gallery at Patterson Park Community Center.

Curated by Dr. Barbara and Leroy Hodges, this juried exhibition of work from local and regional artists gives something of meaning to the audience through inspiring, engaging and edifying works of art. Through visual, written, or social-media storytelling, these artists aim to talk with, and not at, the audience, to interact and offer their perspective for untold stories, conversations from history, societal concerns and environmental issues.

Turning Back A Moment in History by Mary R. Watkins

Artists include Lenda Wade, Mary Wade, Mary R. Watkins, Carolyn Sneed Lester, Rance Perkins, Rosie Perkins, Beverly Dillard, Sylvia Buggs, Barbara Hodges and Leroy Hodges.

Gallery hours are Monday–Friday, 2–4 p.m. For more information, call Leslie Wright at 615-893-7439, ext. 6130.

Patterson Park Community Center is located at 521 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.
