FRANKLIN COUNTY ARTS GUILD
Photo Exhibit Displayed At Cowan's Artisan Depot
The Artisan Depot, the gallery of the Franklin County Arts Guild, is featuring work by the Franklin County Photography Club through February 11.
The Franklin County Photography Club was formed a year ago to provide an opportunity for members of the community with a wide range of experience and interest to come together regularly to share, learn, and develop photographic skills in an environment that is mutually supportive and committed to exploring the creative and documentary potential of photography.
Because photography has so many emotions that can be captured as isolated images, the members present a display of a wide range of photographic interests and experiences.
According to T.M. “Sonny” Elliott, the current photographic display at the Franklin County Arts Guild in Cowan, is a sampling of what the power of the photographic medium is able to document.
“Perhaps more importantly,” Elliott says, “the show represents our perspective on life and art as we grow as a group learning and sharing images about diversity in cultures and the beauty of our world. As a group we are working with the photographic medium to explore seeing as a way to better understand our environment, to motivate and to educate others by sharing our visions and perspectives.”
A reception for the photographers is being held from 5 to 7PM on Friday at the Artisan Depot gallery, located at 201 Cumberland Street East, Cowan.
