Friday, April 3:

Macon Arts Alliance (486 1st Street), 4-7 pm
Macon Arts Alliance is excited to present their April show, “reSISTERS”, featuring works by mixed media artist She Keene. In “reSISTERS”, Keene creates abstract and figurative mixed media pieces that collage historic photographs of early suffragists, layered with both bold and fading text; words that reflect the rights and freedoms people are still fighting to claim today.

The 567 Center for Renewal (456 1st St), 5-8 pm
Join us for the opening reception of the "I Still Feel Like a Child," featuring artwork by Rachel Harrelson and Jackson Griffith. These two artists explore the theme with new works in a variety of mediums, including crayon, pastels, oil paintings and sculptures. See the new exhibit, meet the artists and enjoy refreshments. The artists will also give a talk about their work at 7:10 pm.

Wesleyan College Leadership Lab (522 Cherry St), 5-8 pm
Wesleyan Leadership Lab presents Layers of Becoming, an exhibit of work by Cedric Smith. Free Tarot readings by Autumn Leon Jackson.

The Bohemian Den (502 Cherry St), 5-9 pm
The Bohemian Den presents the opening of Miss/Constructed, featuring works by mixed media and collage artist Lindsey Hopkins. These works begin with fragments—discarded images, borrowed language, softened colors—and rebuild them into something less obedient. Collage becomes a way of interrupting the narratives we’re handed, especially those that shape femininity into something consumable, quiet, or fixed.

Gallery West (447 3rd St), 5-8 pm
Gallery West presents paintings by featured artists: John Mollica, Kevin Lewis, Doug Miles, Deneise Ricketson, Maura Lucchese, and David Knoll. along with sale prices on Kirk West photos.
