Open September 22nd in the Bullpen Gallery

An imaginative and explorative exhibition will be on display at the Gaston County Museum of Art & History beginning Friday, September 22, 2023. “Folk Tales of the Future” asks its viewers what would hang in an art museum after humans no longer exist on the earth? What natural materials would be left to use as art? Artist Regina Bos dives deep into a fascinating medium of encaustic, found materials, metal, textiles, and more.

“I hope this exhibit will inspire our visitors to think outside the box and to embrace our natural environment,” Gaston County Museum’s Curator, Alicyn Wiedrich said. “The Gaston County Museum is excited to support yet another regional artist and give her a platform to show off her innovative work.”

“Folk Tales of the Future” will be open from September 22, 2023 through January 6, 2024. A public opening will be held on Friday, September 22 from 6-8pm at the Gaston County Museum. Light refreshments will be served.

Visit the Gaston County Museum of Art & History from 10am-5pm Tuesdays through Fridays and 11am-4pm on Saturdays. Call (704) 922-7681 for more details. For questions about “Folk Tales of the Future” or other exhibits, please contact Alicyn Wiedrich at Alicyn.Wiedrich@gastongov.com.
