The Beauty of U.S. Opening Reception at Kennedy Art Center: Saturday, May 9th 1-3pm

In recognition of the 250th birthday of the United States, the Kennedy Art Center & Marion Arts Commission are honored to mark this celebratory moment by featuring works created by the Grant County Art Association. The Beauty of U.S. invites our community, county, and country to grow closer through the shared language of painting, photography, and sculpture. Our goal is to unite us through the beauty found in the United States.
This collection reflects what the GCAA artists love about the United States of America. They captured the awe of natural landscapes, the architectural achievements of manmade structures, and illuminated elements of everyday life. These works spark feelings of wonder, joy, and nostalgia. As you look through the gallery, we invite you to reflect on the unique beauty you find in the places we call home.

WHO: The public is welcome
WHEN: May 9th, 2026, 1:00-3:00 pm
