Mannequin Musings At Theatre Art Galleries
Theatre Art Galleries called on artists to have them reflect on 2020, look ahead to 2021, or just to find new life at the whim of the artist. The result is an exhibition featuring the work of 15 North Carolina artists finding new means of expressing turbulent times in original and creative ways. These Mannequin Musings will be available for in person viewing during regular gallery hours, Tuesday-Friday, noon til 5, through the spring.
