“Bark,” an exhibit of artwork in many media by more than 20 artists from the Southeast, opens with a reception tonight, Aug. 13, at the Jewish Cultural Center, 5461 North Terrace. The exhibit will continue through Friday, Oct. 23.

“‘Bark’ is fun because it explores both the solid, as in the bark of a tree, and the sound, as in the bark of a dog,” says curator Ann Treadwell. “The images are representational, abstract, secular and religious. The media includes fiber, photography, wood, stone as well as paint on paper and canvas.”

Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Fridays. The exhibit also may be viewed by appointment by calling 423-493-0270, ext. 13, or emailing atreadwell@jewishchattanooga.com. Admission is free.
