Kentucky Folk Art Center Exhibit: Revealed in Clay

Kentucky Folk Art Center Exhibit: Revealed in Clay

   Ceramic artist and former Kentucky Folk Art Center Artistic Director Adrian Swain (Class of 1998, 2006) and Instructor of Ceramics Quinn Maher are showcasing their work in a new exhibit, “Revealed in Clay.”   The show highlights the expressive potential of clay as a medium, blending tradition with contemporary artistry. Swain and Maher, known for their distinct approaches to form and texture, invite viewers to engage with their pieces on a tactile and emotional level.   The pieces will be displayed at the KFAC from May 2 through July 18. 

Located at 102 West 1st Street in the historic Union Grocery, MSU’s Kentucky Folk Art Center houses a permanent collection of nearly 1,400 pieces of self-taught art. Dozens of works from the collection are displayed on a rotating basis in the center's first-floor gallery. The center presents several changing exhibits in the second-floor gallery each year, featuring folk art, fine art, textiles, photography, and historical content. KFAC also offers a gift shop with original folk art, crafts, jewelry, books, toys, housewares, and more.   For more information about the KFAC, visit www.kyfolkart.org, contact Stone at 606-783-2204, or email t.stone@moreheadstate.edu.
