9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Tuesday - Saturday; 11 a.m. - 5
p.m. Sundays; closed Mondays (Except Holidays). Museum Of Arts
& Sciences, Edward E. and Jane B. Ford Gallery, 352 S. Nova
Road, Daytona Beach. This exhibition includes thirty-four works of
visionary art by sixteen artists from various southeastern states.
Some of the artists included in Stories of Community are
Tennessee's Georgia and Henry Speller; Georgia's Archie
Byron; Alabama's Jimmy Lee Sudduth, Mose Tolliver, and Thornton
Dial; Florida's O. L. Samuels and Mary Proctor; and
Mississippi's Mary T. Smith. Drawn from the larger collection
of Lou and Calynne Hill donated to the Mary Brogan Museum, this
exhibition evinces the vitality and originality of these important
folk artists. None of the artists in this exhibition studied art in
any traditional fashion, but responded to their personal
experiences by creating highly idiosyncratic art that defies
categorization. Seniors & Students $10.95; Adults $12.95;
Children (6-17) $6.95; members and children 5 and under admitted
for free. Planetarium Included in admission. (386) 255-0285.
