Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art announces upcoming exhibit

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- The Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art announced it has a new, upcoming exhibit.
AKMA will unveil it's new exhibition during an opening reception at 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 9.
Our Very Nature by artist, Rachelle Gardner-Roe, is an immersive and interdisciplinary body of work and will be available to view from May 9 through August 10.
The exhibit offers a vibrant, meditative journey into the natural world, uniquely expressed through the artist's blend of fiber art, sculpture, painting and poetry.
The exhibition invites viewers to reconnect with the idea of being part of nature- not separate from it. The works range in tone from joyfully explosive to serenely devotional, each piece encouraging contemplation and continued curiosity.
"Through this body of work, Gardener-Roe reminds us that art, like nature, is both deeply personal and universally resonant," said Madison McKinley, the marketing and communications manager for AKMA. "It's a powerful invitation to slow down, observe and feel a part of something greater.
AKMA's new exhibit is free and open to the public.
