Fulton County launches Nigerian art exhibition connecting Africa to Atlanta

Fulton County's Department of Arts & Culture has launched a multi-week international exhibition titled “Threads of Heritage: A Cultural Confluence Connecting Africa to Atlanta” at the Peachtree Gallery, running through the end of June. The exhibition features 14 Nigerian artists and is delivered in partnership with the Nike Art & Culture Foundation of Nigeria, Nike Art USA, and UniSpectrum Inc. Led by acclaimed artist Chief Dr Nike Monica Okundaye, the program includes masterclasses, public panels, community workshops, and live demonstrations on traditional Adire textiles, with US-based textile artist Shayee Awoyomi co-leading workshops and Nigerian painter Adeleke Akeem directing narrative painting masterclasses.

"Hungry Eyes" Opens at 49 Oak Street

"Hungry Eyes" has opened at 49 Oak Street in Portland, Maine, featuring emerging artists Cam Fox, Bets Ondrey, Sophia Sutherland, and Tom Dailey. The group exhibition explores themes of appetite, the animal, and the sensation of consuming art through layered abstraction, figurative imagery, and mixed-media works such as stitched sugar packets on canvas. A public reception is scheduled for June 5 from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.
