Awaken Coffee: The Three Dames
Category: Culinary arts, food, Exhibitions, visual art and Free event
Friday, May 2 from 6-8 Awaken Coffee will host an opening reception for the art trio “The Three Dames" consisting of Marcia Shelly, Cheryl Massey, and Linda Blair
Marcia has exhibited extensively across the lower 48. She typically paints with acrylics and often likes LARGE.
Cheryl describes her creative process as starting with a lingering spark of inspiration—an image that evolves until it is fully expressed through color on canvas.
Linda begin with mere colorful spots then evolve naturally, and while the blends are often a surprise, the surprise is a special aspect of the total pleasure.
Please join us for some amazing art and of course great coffee!
Awaken Coffee, 125 W Jackson Ave, Knoxville, TN 37902. Open daily. Information: 865-951-0427, www.instagram.com/awaken_coffee or www.facebook.com/awakencoffeeoldcity/
