Opening Reception + Artist Talk = Friday + Saturday at the Asheville Art Museum

Response and Memory: The Art of Beverly Buchanan will feature the bold, colorful and expressive drawings and sculpture of Beverly Buchanan. Buchanan is perhaps best known for her two- and three-dimensional interpretations of the sharecropper shacks that used to dot the back roads of the rural South. Join us for an opening reception with Ms. Buchanan today from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m.!

Saturday, May 9 Beverly Buchanan will give a talk in the gallery featuring her solo exhibition. Join us at 1:00 p.m. for this special opportunity to meet Ms. Buchanan and hear her talk about her work.
