American Made: A Celebration of the Folk Arts Reception
July 24 @ 5:30pm
The Livingston Center for Art and Culture is proud to host American Made: A Celebration of the Folk Arts – an exhibit celebrating works that honor cultural traditions, community and lived experience. The exhibit runs from July 14th through August 6th.From functional objects to expressive creations, the handmade pieces in this show reflect the stories, skills, and values passed from one generation to the next. Drawing from the diverse cultural traditions that have shaped the American experience, this exhibition highlights folk art as a living practice…where heritage is preserved, shared, and reimagined. Rooted in many histories yet united through craftsmanship and creativity, these works remind us that America’s artistic identity is woven from many hands and many stories.
The public can meet participating artists at a Reception on Friday, July 24th from 5:30 to 8:00 pm – during the Livingston Art Walk. The Center is located at 119 South Main Street in historic downtown Livingston. For more information, call (406) 222-5222 or visit http://www.livingstoncenter.org/
