Clothed in Beauty: The Art of Melanie Hofmann & Dawn Moore

September 28 – November 16, 2024 | Artists’ Reception: Tuesday, October 1, 6:30-8:00 p.m.

The Anne P. Baker Gallery presents “Clothed in Beauty: The Art of Melanie Hofmann and Dawn Moore,” a vibrant array of paintings by two Hopkins County Schools elementary teachers. This exhibit will be on display from September 28 to November 16, 2024. The community is invited to an artists’ reception on Tuesday, October 1, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Both artists draw inspiration from the natural world, creating vivid paintings honoring its beauty and complexity.

“Being in nature brings a sense of joy and tranquility that is often elusive in our fast-paced lives,” said Moore. “Through my work, I strive to capture and celebrate the magnificence of creation, infusing my pieces with vibrant colors, bold patterns, and rich textures.”

Hofmann was similarly motivated as she created pieces with the exhibit’s theme in mind, many intended to “capture God’s beauty through nature.”

The Anne P. Baker Gallery is located inside the Glema Mahr Center for the Arts on the campus of Madisonville Community College. The gallery is open Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with extended hours on Glema Center event days. Gallery admission is free.
