Send off the summer with a little culture
After a summer full of outdoor activities, escape the heat for an evening and start the weekend off with an event brimming with culture, beauty and a few adult refreshments. The opening night reception for artist Jennifer J. L. Jones’ exhibit at the Alan Avery Art company is the perfect excuse to experience all of the above, with the additional perk of mingling with other art lovers. Jones, who lives in Atlanta, credits nature as the primary influence on her ethereal painting, which combine multiple mediums and a refined glazing technique. In addition to having her work exhibited across the U.S. and in Europe, collectors of her paintings include Oprah Winfrey and the Atlanta Botanical Garden–just to name a few. What could be better than sipping a cocktail while looking at beautiful art along with the artist herself? And who knows, you might just find the perfect painting to start your own collection (or complete the one you already have).
