The 2025 art exhibition season for the Artists League of the Sandhills continues with the April gallery show titled “Light and Color: A Love Affair with the Sandhills,” featuring the Art of Jennifer Walker.

From the clubhouse to the botanical garden and beyond, this collection reflects my delight and enchantment with my new home. As a part-time resident who recently moved to the area full time, I hope to share the sense of wonderment and beauty I feel every time I step outside. I try, through a kind of painterly realism, to capture the light – sunlight filtering through the trees in the morning, light reflecting gold from the pine straw up onto trees, the changing colors of azaleas as they move from light into shade, and the magic of deer in Reservoir Park at sunrise. I’m thankful to be living in such a beautiful place, and if I can share this gift and give someone joy through my art, it’s a win for me.”

The Opening Reception will take place on Friday, April 4th, from 5:00pm-7:00pm. The exhibit will be on display in the Exchange Street Gallery of Fine Art through Friday, April 25th. Gallery hours are Monday-Saturday | 12pm-3pm. Studios (with hundreds of additional paintings) are open Monday through Friday, 10:30am-3:00pm, and Saturday, 12pm-3pm.
