There’s a new exhibit coming to the Saint Louis University Museum of Art called “Sun Smith-Foret: Final Cut”. Sun Smith-Foret is a tapestry artist who uses the African-American textile technique of strip piecing to produce tapestries of bright colors, multiple patterns and appliqué. She uses this technique to depict her interpretation on classic cinema and popular culture.

The free opening reception for the exhibit is on May 6 at 6PM, at SLUMA of course. For more information, contact Mary Marshall at (314) 977-2666.
