Dothan, Ala. (WDNews) – The Wiregrass Museum of Art and Visit Dothan have teamed up to launch a new rotating art exhibition series aimed at celebrating local artists in a public, downtown setting.
Visit Dothan office will host quarterly exhibitions featuring the work of Wiregrass-area artists. The goal: to bring local creativity into one of the city’s busiest community spaces, introducing both residents and tourists to the region’s vibrant art scene.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Visit Dothan on this new initiative,” Dana-Marie Lemmer, Executive Director of the Wiregrass Museum of Art, said. “It gives artists a unique opportunity to share their work with a broader public in a high-traffic space.”
The first artist in the lineup was Hannah Edgman, whose exhibit, Beauty Beyond the Orange, is now on display. Edgman uses clay, acrylic, and watercolor to reimagine everyday Wiregrass landscapes into bold, symbolic pieces.
“By showcasing local artists in our space, we’re not only enhancing the visitor experience,” Visit Dothan Executive Director Hannah Shiver added. “We’re building stronger community connections through culture.”
The exhibition series kicks off officially during the First Friday Art Crawl on August 1 at 4 p.m. at the Visit Dothan office. The event is free and open to the public.
