Envisioning Folk: Art Inspired by Heritage

This September, immerse yourself in the spirit of tradition, storytelling,
and cultural expression with Envisioning Folk: Art Inspired by Heritage, a dynamic new
exhibition celebrating the enduring power of folk art. The show opens with a public
reception on Friday, September 5, from 6:00 to 9:00 PM, and will be on view throughout the weekend as part of Greensboro’s Annual Folk Festival.

This special exhibition offers festivalgoers the opportunity to explore how contemporary
artists interpret and preserve folk traditions through their creative practices. Whether
honoring ancestral techniques or reimagining folkloric motifs with modern flair, these
artists create works that resonate with memory, identity, and a deep sense of place.
