The Wake Forest Renaissance Centre is inviting military veterans, reservists, and active-duty members to showcase their artistic talents in an upcoming Veteran Art Show. Located at 405 S. Brooks St., the centre aims to provide a gallery space where these individuals can express their unique experiences and perspectives through art.
With 120 linear feet of wall space and a large display cabinet, the Renaissance Centre is committed to presenting a diverse range of artistic expressions, accommodating both 2D and 3D artworks. Interested participants are encouraged to visit the centre’s website for more information and to submit their works by the deadline of October 3.
Exhibition Dates and Public Engagement
The art exhibit will be open for public viewing from October 21 to November 26 at the Renaissance Centre Arts Annex. This event offers a platform not just for observation but also for acquisition, allowing attendees to purchase pieces directly from the veteran artists and support their creative endeavors.
A special reception is scheduled for October 24 from 18:00 to 20:00, providing an opportunity for the public to meet the artists. This free event serves as a tribute to the contributors, highlighting the intersection of military service and artistic expression. By attending, visitors can gain a deeper appreciation for the stories and sacrifices represented in the artworks they encounter.
The Veteran Art Show at the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre promises to be a meaningful celebration of creativity and service, fostering connections between artists and the community.
