Photography, folk art exhibit at Gallery 86

art hcacA creative photography and folk art exhibit, “Memories — Past, Present and Future” will be showcased April 6-28 in Gallery 86 at the Haywood County Arts Council in Waynesville.

Works by Candler sisters, Barbara Sammons and Francine Menor, will be on display. Sammons captures the past with a stunning collection of junkyard car, the present with a creative technique called “scanography,” which is the process of producing fine art photography with the use of a flat bed scanner. Menor’s folk art is representative of the future with her hand-painted growth charts.

An artist reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. April 10 at Gallery 86. All of the works are for sale, with proceeds from the exhibit to benefit CarePartners Foundation and CarePartners Hospice in memory of the sister’s mother, Irene Holloway.
