New three-woman show opening at GHCA

Be sure to go to the gallery in Tallulah Falls to see the first shows of the season at the Georgia Heritage Center for the Arts.

The public is invited to attend a reception on Sunday afternoon, February 15, from 2 to 4 p.m. celebrating the opening of a phenomenal three-woman show by friends Kiki Williamson, Kerri Hirsch and Samantha Vinke. You may bring hors d’ oeuvres or wine to share!

GHCA will also announce winners and honor participating artists in the gallery show “Daisies Won’t Tell”, which remains in the gallery until February 27th. The showcase challenged artists to think beyond the obvious and explore how a single subject, the humble daisy, can be represented in many mediums and with widely diverse ideas.
