Two area artists, a photographer and a
woman who specializes in water color
portraits of children and pets, will be
featured in Wake Forest studios Friday,
July 13, for this month’s Art After
Hours from 6 to 9 p.m.
The monthly event sponsored
by the Downtown Revitalization
Corporation draws people to the town’s
historic downtown to socialize, ride a
horse-drawn carriage along South White
Street, shop in the stores which remain
open until 9 p.m., look at art and
handcrafts of all kinds and end with a
meal at a downtown restaurant.
Durham photographer Dwayne
Heubner has been taking pictures of the
flowers in the Doris Duke Garden at Duke
University, and some of his work will be
on display at the Sunflower Studio on
East Jones Avenue, just off South White
Street.
“These are exquisite,”
Sunflower owner Linda Burrell said of
Heubner’s photographs and urged flower
lovers to come to see them.
She and the others in the
studio will be serving light
refreshments and wine, and the music for
the evening will be by local guitarist
and teacher Mark Abbott.
The Cotton Company on South
White Street will host a reception and
wine tasting for July’s featured artist,
Susan Espin. She is from New Orleans and
now lives in the Triangle. In her water
colors, her goal is “the idea of
capturing one moment in time.”
Be sure to also visit the
other shops which will be open that
evening. |
