Picturing America

Come enjoy the newest exhibit at the Center for the Arts! The Picturing America gallery reception will occur on Friday, January 6, from 6:30-8:30 p.m., and is free and open to the public. Meet local historians and enjoy complimentary refreshments and music in the lobby. This show was curated in partnership with the Sherwood Historical Society. Picturing America, a project of the National Endowment for the Humanities, tells America’s story through its art in large, high-quality reproductions of selected masterworks of American art from 1100 to 1996. The selection of paintings, sculptures, architecture, and decorative arts represents a broad range of American art. The works belong to American collections that are accessible to the public, and were selected for their quality, range of media, and ability to be grouped in ways that expand their educational potential. This exhibit will be available Dec. 15 thru March 30.
