The Delta Blues: Clint Herring Watercolors
2025-08-06 - 2025-08-30 | The Kelly Fitzpatrick Center for the Arts, 301 Hill Street, Wetumpka, AL, 36092
Join Clint Herring, renowned contemporary watercolor artist from Auburn, Alabama, in this exhibition celebrating his Delta Blues watercolor series for his upcoming art book “Clint Herring Watercolors: The Delta Blues”. Full of portraiture and conceptual artworks (seventy-three!), both this exhibition and his upcoming art book honor the legends and everyday delta blues players of the past and contemporary – from T-Model Ford, Robert Johnson, Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters to Gip Gipson and Ruthie Foster. Be sure to come see his exhibit at The Kelly throughout this month!

Join the Kelly in appreciating our Artist Associates and the wonderful art they create through this upcoming exhibition! We appreciate all the art our Artist Associates create for The Kelly and wanted to give them a show of their own. Therefore, we will be showcasing their work throughout most of the gallery during the month of August. Be sure to come see this exhibit at The Kelly sometime this month!
