Wiregrass Museum of Art
Sept 10, 2022 | Dothan, Ala.
A terrific slate of quarterly meet-ups for Albany Museum of Art members starts on Saturday, Sept 10 with a group visit to the Wiregrass Museum in Dothan, Ala., to see B:22 Wiregrass Biennial. AMA members, who provide their own transportation for this free event, will meet at the AMA at 8 am for the caravan, or they can meet the group at the Wiregrass at 10 am (EDT).
The Wiregrass Biennial is a juried exhibition open to all artists 18 and older who live and work in the Southeast. The artworks, all created within the last three years, were juried by Meredith Lynn, curator of the Museum of Fine Arts and director of Galleries for the College of Fine Arts at Florida State University; Tina Ruggieri, assistant curator at the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts, and Daniel White, director of the Paul R. Jones Museum of American Art and the director of The University Gallery at The University of Alabama.
In addition, AMA members are invited to participate in the Wiregrass’ Watercolor Collective, a brunch-time event with watercolor painting, drinks, and music. The leisurely come-and-go paint party will provide still-life inspiration within the garden’s flowers, sculptures, and fountains. Cocktails or mocktails will be available at the cash bar. AMA members will dine together before returning to Albany.
