9/30/2009 UPDATE ~ The 2009 Flowers of Hope exhibit, comprised of 37 panels, will open in the galleries at the Library on October 1 and will run through October 16. This year's collection of panels includes a mix of designs from the Hurley's book "Flowers of Hope" as well as quite a few original designs by the participating artists. Once again, we have participants "from the coast to the capital" in Mississippi, plus one artist from California and one from Alabama. Copper foil, leaded, and fused panels are included as well. It has been interesting to see the progression of panels over the years: the first year or so, everyone used the book designs, and now there is about a fifty-fifty mix of orignal designs and patterns. And all so lovely for such a good cause!
