Last Call: Arts & Draughts
It’s the final party of the season, at least for Arts & Draughts at Columbia Museum of Art.
During Arts & Draughts, the museum becomes a cultural crossroads, attracting an eclectic mix of residents from Main Street and beyond, art devotees and novices, young and old.
Join in the fun on Friday the 13th with great food and beer, live music, Georgia O’Keefe-inspired art activities (“Georgia O’Keefe: Her Carolina Story” is on display now in the main gallery), a Unique Perspective Tour with master storyteller Shannon Ivey of Yo Mama Theatre, and a scavenger hunt (or two).
Food will be available from The Wurst Wagen, The Belgian Waffle Truck, KC Hotdogs and Bone-In Artisan Barbecue on Wheels.
The featured beer will be Asheville’s Hi-Wire Brewing’s Hi-Wire Lager.
Music performances are on tap from:
▪ George Fetner & The Strays: Fetner is a composer, songwriter and guitarist whose latest release, “Beneath the Ice,” is experimental electronica.
▪ Zack Mexico: “Ferocious psychelelic POP” and indie rock out of Kill Devil Hills, N.C.
▪ The Distributors: “Regular-guy rock” featuring Murray Baroody, Jay Matheson, Steve Sancho and Ben Irons.
▪ ET Anderson: “Fusing garage tock, psychedelic 60s nostalgia and R&B grooves.”
While you’re there, take time to check out the “Independent Spirits: Women Artists of South Carolina” exhibit.
