Apples"
The final Summer Sunday Art Event at
Saluda Fine Arts, features apples – apples and
grandparents. When situations and conversations
deteriorated, Big Mama, the mother of 12, would
say, "Let’s talk about red apples." We plan to do just
that! Gallery artists will display "apple art" and share
grandparent memories through art, photos, letters
etc. The public is invited to share their apple art and
grandparent memories. The gallery opens at 2.
The "Let’s Talk About Red Apples" program begins at
3. There will be plenty of real apples to look at, or
eat. Artists will be drawing, painting, photographing
red apples. Participants may also create their own
drawings and paintings.
