Emerging Artists Exhibition
February 22, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 4:30 pm
Free
February – March || 9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. || Lucy Craft Laney Museum
The Lucy Craft Laney Museum of Black History is excited to welcome a first-time exhibit entitled “Emerging Artists” on display through March. This new exhibit highlights a lot of the new artistic talent in the River Region. It also includes a selection of more recognized artists. The mixture of new and established will give the newer artists an opportunity to learn more about Augusta’s arts community.
The featured emerging artist for the showcase is Chase McKai Young, a 10th grade Greenbrier student. Chase’s passion for art started when she was a little girl. She was inspired by her older sister. Her artworks depict black women in different capacities. Chase says “in one, she is mystifying and a being who is unattainable. In the other she is being oppressed and is struggling to fight back.”
Reception:
Saturday, February 25th || 12 – 1:30 p.m. || Lucy Craft Laney Museum
