The Artist Salon Series provides visitors with a new way to learn about art through a personal and intimate exchange with artists – some represented in exhibitions and some responding to works by other artists. The gallery talks, led by Columbia-based artists, cover a wide range of subjects, topics and disciplines and create a dialogue with the audience. All gallery talks begin at noon at the Columbia Museum of Art in Columbia, SC, and are free with admission or membership.
“We had such a success with our series of gallery talks led by ceramicists last year we knew we’d hit on something exciting. Visitors love hearing directly from artists about their creative process,” Leslie Pierce, Associate Director of Public Programs and Community Relations, said.”
