"Stories of Community" Self-Taught Art From the Hill Collection
Event Happens: May 29, 2010 - Aug 23, 2010

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. www.moas.org.
