Art

The Royal Bean Coffee House has been host to art exhibits from local artist including Meredith College since 2005.  We schedule art year around and rotate the art exhibits every six weeks.  The current art exhibit will be up until Sun, January 8, 2012.  We currently have on exhibit artwork by Lois Bronstein and Abby Bullard.  Please read below to learn more about these two artists and drop by the Royal Bean for a coffee drink and to view their work.

Artist Statement:

I am a high school senior planning on attending art school in the fall of 2012. I spent the summer in Savannah, Georgia at Savannah College of Art and Design and received two college credits for Photographic Foundations and Principles and Elements of Design. I am looking into other schools on the east coast, such as Pratt Institute and Virginia
Commonwealth University. I hope to study and major in printmaking or illustration. I received honorable mention in the 2011 Congressional Arts Competition for North Carolina last year for my “Native” print. In September, I received honorable mention for a watercolor portrait in the Never Exhibited Works (N.E.W.) show for Visual Art Exchange. On Dec. 2, at First Friday, I sold two pieces at a silent auction in support of Equality NC’s campaign against the anti-LGBT amendment. All of the proceeds from my artwork sold here at Royal Bean will go directly to my college education.

Thank you,

Abby Bullard
