Augusta Art Adventures: Field Botanicals By Jamie Augusta Art Adventures: Field Botanicals By Jamie Jackson: Max and I went to visit Field Botanicals on a sunny Thursday morning and we were excited to see the new mural that Jason Craig wrapped around Jen’s checkout table. She told me that the lavender is paint left over from the walls and the yellow is color-matched to the Field Botanicals branding. Her only requests for the murals had been the colors and “something floral with something at least vaguely female or feminine.” The mural is a gorgeous addition to the shop.

Arts in the Heart of Augusta Festival Cancelled Du Arts in the Heart of Augusta Festival Cancelled Due to COVID-19 For thirty-nine years Arts in the Heart of Augusta Festival has brought Augustans together to celebrate our wealth of arts, our amazing cultural diversity, and of course food. It is with a heavy heart that the City of Augusta and the Greater Augusta Arts Council has to announce that the award-winning festival will not be held this year. The recent surge in COVID-19 cases and unprecedented pandemic mandates precautions for the well-being of our community.

Featured Member Artist: Don Carter Don Carter, al Featured Member Artist: Don Carter Don Carter, also known as Baba Carter, is a retired military veteran who took up wood carving, metalsmithing, and other artistic endeavors. Carter is highly creative and says he tackles any medium and art form that he puts his sights on. He sets intent for his art and holds himself to a high standard. Retirement allows him creative flexibility and, when asked, he said he works mostly at his home in his carport. This is where he brings his wood carvings and bladed weapons artwork to life. Most of his pieces, he said, started as a vision or an image in his head that he then makes real.

Augusta Art Adventures: Sacred Heart Art Show - Mi Augusta Art Adventures: Sacred Heart Art Show - Michael Reibel By Brenda Durant: I didn’t have to travel far for my Art Adventure this week. Sacred Heart held an Exhibition Open House on July 9th so I donned my mask and walked ALL THE WAY… around the corner from my office to the Art Hall. It is a beautiful show; Michael Reibel is a talented painter and a gracious host. All his paintings come with a story card. These are his notes on where it was painted or what each painting represents. His paintings in the show are coastal – who isn’t ready for a trip to the coast right now? Even if we can’t travel to the coast in person, this show is a great visual escape. Best of all we can even bring a painting home for a ‘view out’ from the comfort of our home.

Cole Phail is quickly making progress creating the Cole Phail is quickly making progress creating the James Brown mural located at 9th and Broad Street. The community is welcome to view the live paintings in the evening, when it is cool enough for Phail to paint at length. The Arts Council highly suggests social distancing and mask- and facial-covering use for any in-person visits to the mural site. @yanceyrents #colephail #loveaugusta #augustaarts #jamesbrownmural #jamesbrownaugusta
