Southern Contemporary Folk Art Open Storage
The entire third floor of the Museum is reserved for Southern Contemporary Folk Art. As part of this dedication to folk art, the Donelly and Lail Galleries house works in an open storage format. These pieces are not part of a traditional exhibition, but are on view for research, study, comparison and enjoyment. Works in these galleries change regularly.
Mission Statement
The Folk Art Society of America, founded in 1987, is a nonprofit organization that advocates the documentation, preservation and exhibition of folk art, folk artists and folk art environments, with an emphasis on the contemporary. We publish The Folk Art Messenger free to members, and produce an annual Conference with symposia, special exhibitions and an auction. Our online Calendar lists current, upcoming and ongoing folk-art-related events and exhibitions.
