Tonight! 🎊 Join us for the "Beverly McIver: Full Circle" Opening Reception with the artist and curator from 5–8pm. Admission is free and open to the public.
From early self-portraits in clown makeup to more recent works featuring portraits of others and her own reflections on the COVID-19 pandemic, “Full Circle” illuminates the arc of McIver's artistic career while also touching on her personal journey. Her self-portraits explore expressions of individuality, stereotypes, and ways of masking identity, while portraits of family members provide glimpses of intimate moments, in good times as well as in illness and death. The exhibition includes McIver's portraits of other artists and notable figures, recent work resulting from a year in Rome with American Academy's Rome Prize, and new work in which McIver explores the juxtaposition of color, pattern, and the human figure.
“Beverly McIver: Full Circle” is organized by the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA) and guest curated by Kim Boganey. The exhibition is generously supported by world class sponsor Wells Fargo Wealth & Investment Management. Additional exhibition support is provided by National Endowment for the Arts, The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, and Craven Allen Gallery & House of Frames.

Five Triad-based artists were selected to spotlight a breadth of regional talent, and their work will be available at the ArtCities House Party this Sunday, December 11, from 3-6pm at Milton Rhodes Center for the Arts.
“Everyone should be able to see what I have been able to see over the years,” Boganey said. “To see how she has essentially put her life out there through art. Her career has really been about telling her story in her paintings. That’s what resonates with people. She is a master at painting. This allows people to see what I have been so fortunate to see over all these years.”

Beverly McIver’s first art gallery exhibition wasn’t exactly a glitzy affair. “They had a hallway where they’d exhibit emerging artists,” the Duke art professor recalled with a smile recently. “It was on the way to the bathroom. But it was a good show.” That was in 1998, when McIver wa...

“In the case of objects and installations, I seek to establish a game with the meaning of the materials and the objects, by creating a dialogue between the act of intervention and the material subjected to this intervention,” said artist Aimée García. “For example, with embroidered plates and saucepans, I have used everyday objects to create a discourse about our cultural, political and social environment.”
This is the final week to see Aimée García’s captivating and textural “Black Tears” exhibition in SECCA’s Southern Idiom gallery. Plan your visit before the exhibition closes!

Need another reason to be thankful? 🤲 Dreampop duo Shady Cove has joined the bill for Crossroads @ SECCA #026: Night Moves on Thursday, January 26! Tickets are on sale now: https://secca.org/calendar-detail.php?EventOccId=925368468
Four hours south of Portland, Oregon, the Rogue River flows right through the center of a small municipality called Shady Cove. This is where songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Sarah Rose and Sarah Nienaber, formerly of Candace, recorded the track that would become the name of their new project; this is where, in an unassuming cabin, the two seasoned collaborators began exploring desire's revolutionary potential and the nomadic impulses borne of creative restlessness and the claustrophobia of city life.
“We were not writing these songs with the idea of a band in mind,” says Sarah Rose, describing how the album came together. "It felt like these songs wanted to belong to something new, rather than the continuation of a previous project.”
“We're always searching for the right place, the good place, the landing place, the final resting place,” Nienaber reflects, implying that the only thing that will satisfy desire is more desire. “In these songs, I think there is a self-conscious acknowledgement that I, or you, or we, will never get there… Shady Cove is a celebration of that unshakeable longing, the forever search.”
These tunes are not to be missed! Get your tickets today.
Please note our holiday hours this week! SECCA's grounds and galleries will be closed Thanksgiving and Black Friday, and resume normal hours Friday and Saturday. 🦃
“The title of this series is based on the classic Cuban bolero-son ‘Lágrimas Negras-Black Tears’ (1930),” said artist Aimée García. “I appropriate the title of this song to represent in a poetic way the reality of the Cuban people who struggle in the midst of a repressive system, between memory, precariousness and uprooting due to migration, a reality that can be representative of other contexts in similar conditions.”
Aimée García was born in Matanzas, Cuba in 1972. She graduated from the Higher Institute of Art Havana in 1996, and currently lives and works in Winston-Salem, NC. Her work has been exhibited around the world in museums and galleries in Mexico, Germany, England, Spain, and Italy. She has participated in several international biennials including the 57th Venice Biennale, Biennial of Havana, Biennial of Kwangju, Biennial of Cuenca, and Biennial of Painting of the Caribbean and Central America.
“Black Tears” marks the 31st installment of SECCA’s exhibition series, celebrating and elevating Winston-Salem artists. In contrast to most shows at SECCA, works on view are available for purchase.

Award time! 🏆 Please join us in congratulating Alex Brown, SECCA Director of Programs & Audience Engagement, for receiving the NCAEA: North Carolina Art Education Association’s “Art Educator of the Year” Award, Museum Division!
Alex joined the SECCA team in 2014. In addition to planning SECCA’s exhibition programs, Brown hosts a variety of educational programs for PreK-12 and college students, including guided field trips, workshops, and summer camps. Brown also hosts a monthly “Second Saturdays” program at SECCA, offering free, family-friendly art activities inspired by current exhibitions.
“The arts are fundamental to the human experience,” said Brown. “They challenge us with different perspectives, changing our points of view so we can see and experience the world in new ways, nurturing values like empathy and tolerance. Organizations like the NCAEA and initiatives like SECCA’s Portable Gallery are determined to make access to the arts and art education more equitable, so we can all learn to express ourselves and better understand the ways in which others choose to express themselves.”
Under Brown’s leadership, SECCA launched the Portable Gallery initiative in October 2021. The Portable Gallery is an outreach initiative that provides students with greater access to the arts by bringing original works by NC-based artists directly into PreK-12 classrooms. The Portable Gallery is available to visit schools in Forsyth County and the surrounding counties, free of charge to teachers, students, and schools. The Portable Gallery has reached more than 2,500 students since launching last year.
The North Carolina Art Education Association was founded in 1965 as a professional, non-profit educational association dedicated to promoting and improving the quality of art education in North Carolina. NCAEA is an active advocate for promoting visual arts education in public and private K-12 schools, higher education, museums, arts centers, and arts councils across the state.
To schedule a visit from SECCA’s Portable Gallery, contact Alex Brown at [email protected].

Can you believe it? 😮 Since launching in 2017, SECCA’s Southern Idiom exhibition series has showcased thirty(!!!) Winston-Salem visual artists.

Reimagine classic works of literature with “Retelling Stories,” a new fall book discussion series led by SECCA director Bill Carpenter. Held at the historic Hanes House at SECCA, the series is free and open to the public. 📚 Join us September 29 for Retelling Stories Book Discussion: "The Chosen and the Beautiful", inspired by F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby.” “Retelling Stories” explores classic works of literature from different — and often under-represented — viewpoints. These novels give voice to the characters on the fringes of the original narratives, encouraging us to shift our attention to the contexts and subtexts of the original works. In these specific cases, the original works hold very privileged spots in Western culture, and the retellings help us consider how and why such privileging occurs. To read a classic through a new lens is to interrogate the social systems that bestow legitimacy and value. Support our local book store by purchasing your books from Bookmarks!

“My work stems from a desire to investigate an understanding of perfect creation and how individual fragments affect the whole. While some of my work relies on computer aided design, the pieces represented here have forced me to welcome disorder and confusion with persistence to realize the completed pieces.“– Gabe Bridges of Metalmorphosis, Inc. “Brutal Beauty,” the latest in SECCA’s local-centric #SouthernIdiom exhibition series, features evocative new sculptures by artist and metalworker Gabe Bridges. The exhibition is on view through September 11, with works available for purchase. Plan your visit! #metal #sculpture #WSNC #myws
In addition to Paul Bright's large and colorful paper collages, the artist's "Matter of Style" exhibition features works made from found objects; some man-made, some from the natural world. Bright's "[im]provvisorio" image pairs were created in July of 2018 during the artist's residency on the island of Comacina at Lake Como, Italy, under the auspices of the Academy of Fine Arts Brera (Milan). Plan your trip to experience the exhibition, #onview in SECCA's Potter Gallery through October 30, and join us for a series of exhibition programs in September.

The reef has arrived! 🪸🐠🤿 Over 400 fiber artists, crochet enthusiasts, craftivists, and crochet beginners across the state contributed parts to the North Carolina Satellite Reef, which arrives at SECCA after appearing at the North Carolina Museum of Art this spring. The reef is part of the Crochet Coral Reef project by artists Christine and Margaret Wertheim, and will travel to our DNCR state aquariums on the coast later this fall. Joining together the work of many hands to create the riot of color, texture, and pattern that is the North Carolina Satellite Reef reminds us of the power of individual acts completed in concert with others to take action and demonstrate care. Working together in groups or classrooms or alone on couches, Satellite Reef contributors built an awareness that calls attention to the complex biodiversity of the oceans and the positive repercussions possible through individual and collective acts. #DNCR50 #crochet #reef #WSNC
