"The Threads that Hold Us Together" 24 x 48, Mixed Media, $2300
Meet the Artist
From the deep roots of North Carolina’s early industries—tar, pitch, and turpentine—to the grit and resilience that earned its people their name, this exhibit showcases artwork exploring the heritage, culture, and identity of our state. Whether through history, landscapes, personal narratives, or bold new interpretations, this juried exhibit invites artists to reflect on what being a Tar Heel means to them.
