Museum Musings
A Message from Our Chairwoman
Have you ever gone to an art museum and left hungry?  Feast Your Eyes:  Celebrating the Food of the South is the wonderful summer exhibit at the Art Museum that will leave your stomach growling.  This unique and fun show focuses on food of the South and has something to please everyone...including children.  Come and be treated to beautiful, evocative art that indeed will make you hungry for more.
 
For this our 20th anniversary year we will exhibit approximately 200 works of art from the private collections of Grand Strand residents.  Grand Strand Collects, opening September 28, 2017,is a unique opportunity to see extraordinary art that you would never see unless you were invited to the owner's home.   All of our galleries will reflect the tastes, passions and pleasures of our local collectors.  We thank the collectors that allowed Liz Miller, our curator, to visit their homes and see the art inside. This will be a unique exhibit you don't want to miss.
 
Speaking of our 20th Anniversary - can you believe that for 20 years the Art Museum has been presenting art and education to visitors and residents of the area?   Art is so important to a community, inspiring and challenging children to create and express themselves, providing beauty in a world that  is not always so pretty. The Art Museum has many to thank for its past success: the founders who had the vision, passion and patience to make the Museum a reality; our sustainers who over the years have given their time and money to make the Art Museum a recognized regional art center, and our  staff, few in number, but oh so effective and innovative. Their commitment to art, the community and Museum inspires all of us.
 
If you haven't been to the Museum, there is no better time to come see us.  Become a member and be a sustainer; you will assure that the Art Museum and all the creative energy and inspiration it provides will be there for you and others long into the future.   
 
Thank you...come Feast Your Eyes.

 
Sincerely,



Nancy Cave
Chair, Museum Board of Trustees
