HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — This Saturday people can celebrate Black History Month through art at the Monthaven Arts and Cultural Center.
The exhiibit features more than 60 illustrations by Tennessee artist Michael McBride in three children's books he has been published in: "'S' is for Sweetgrass: The ABCs of Gullah Geechee" by Dr. Triba Gray Davis, "She Remembered it All: the Art of Memory Painter Helen LaFrance" by Jayne Moole Waldrop, and "Tickle Me Grandma" by Delphine Pierce.
The exhibit is called Culture, Color, and Children. On the evening of the opening day people can meet McBride and the book authors at the center. Admission is free.
The exhibit runs until March 24.
The aftermath of the historic ice storm will be felt for a long time by many, but what looked like a hopeless situation for one small business owner proved to be quite the opposite. This community would not let her fail. Patsy Montesinos shares the story with a truly happy ending.
