andy warhol is a huge hit!

This weekend we saw over 1,000 folks for the opening of Andy Warhol exhibit!

We heard lots of fantastic things about the exhibit! I thought I would share some of the good words…

“This exhibit is better than a MOMA exhibit at a fraction of the cost!”

“Your educational tours are better than those provided by Nasher!”

“I had no idea of the variety of work that Warhol did– thanks for showcasing some of his later works!”

“The incorporation of the can sculptures is a great way to expand your perception of Warhol’s work! Well done! We love it!”

“I never thought I’d get the opportunity to see Warhol in Fayetteville for five dollars! Let alone right in the middle of the Dogwood Festival!”

“Wow, we can’t believe all the great hands on art activities for children for FREE.”

“We get to take these warhol art activities HOME, for FREE?”

“This is the only reason I even came to the Dogwood Festival! Warhol, here, in Fayetteville!”

Thanks for all the kind words, folks! We all worked very hard as a staff to bring this exhibit together, and we are grateful that it pleases the community so!

DON’T FORGET THAT TONIGHT, FROM 5PM UNTIL 7PM, YOU CAN CATCH THE WARHOL EXHIBIT AT THE FESTIVAL PARK PLAZA BUILDING (RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE HEADQUARTERS LIBRARY) FOR FREE!
