Exhibits

Be inspired by African and African-American art! 

A line in Maya Angelou's poem, Our Grandmothers, insists, "I shall not be moved." But everyone will want to get moving to the Arts Council to see her amazing poetry!

Angelou's powerful words are paired with John Biggers' incredible illustrations in the Inspiration exhibit. Their collaboration is presented along with work from two other unique collections -- Voices and Portfolio -- through Feb. 18 (see below for gallery hours). 

A children's make-n-take workshop event is planned for Feb. 18 at 1 p.m. Space is limited and a reservation is required. Please call the Arts Council at 910-323-1776 to register your school-age child.

Exhibit sponsors include Carolina Oral Maxillofacial Surgery Center, Fayetteville State University, Piedmont Natural Gas, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. -- Zeta Pi Omega Chapter, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. -- Fayetteville Alumnae Chapter, Lisa's Framing, sfL+a Architects and Eugene and Kathy Wright.
