The North Carolina Arboretum has a must-see exhibit on display right now - Wild Art Sculpture Showcase!! This inspiring outdoor sculpture exhibition is on display until September 26, 2021. There are 18 sculptures by 17 artists that drew their inspiration from nature. The diverse styles and materials are a fitting complement to the Arboretum's ever changing gardens, exhibits, and educational offerings. This 434 acre campus has been cultivating so much in the Asheville community for over 30 years.
Camilla Calnan Photography is proud to be one of the sponsors of the Wild Art Exhibit at the NC Arboretum. The studio is a community partner along with an array of local supporters and partner businesses. I was honored that I was able to meet quite a few of the artists at the artist's opening reception, and in this post I have combined photos from the reception evening along with photos from other visits. Hope you get to see these sculptures in person! See below the photos for links to the artists' websites.
