Tim Miner of Charlotte is Creative joins WFAE’s Gwendolyn Glenn on this week’s edition of “Weekend in Entertainment.” A new art exhibition opens Friday evening at J Henry Studio, located at the Charlotte Art League.
“This is an incredible show featuring works of six artists of color,” Miner said. “There are very personal works that explore their perceptions of Blackness and what Blackness means to them.”
Opening night is Friday, with a reception from 6 to 9 p.m. The show runs through the remainder of February.
