AVV 1-25 #685989

CHARLESTON, S.C. — “America at Work: WPA Prints from the Gibbes Collection” is on view at The Gibbes Museum of Art through April 15 in the Rotunda galleries.

The exhibition represents the initiative of the Depression-era United States government to revitalize the nation through the visual arts and art education. This exhibition showcases approximately 25 prints from the Gibbes’ permanent collection that were created under the auspices of the Federal Art project, an initiative that provided employment for out-of work artists and created artwork for such public buildings as post offices, county courthouses and libraries.

The museum is at 135 Meeting Street. For more information, www.gibbesmuseum.org or 843-722-2706.
