Lake Junaluska’s Artists in Residence invite the public to visit “Art in the Gardens,” now through Wednesday, May 15.

The event features works by Lake Junaluska community artists displayed at a number of the 16 gardens and places of meditation throughout the grounds. In addition, an exhibition called “Legends” is located outside the Harrell Center library.

Paintings, environmental art, mobiles and sculptures will all be exhibited and will be available for sale. However, one particular exhibit was designed to be given away, said artist in residence Jody Lipscomb. 

“Joy in the Garden,” a community art project by artists Joy Clairborneand Betsy Eaves, invited community members to help paint 60 to 80 rocks, which were placed in heart shapes near Memorial Chapel. Visitors to the exhibition were then invited to take a rock.  

To learn where art will be displayed, as well as the contact information for each participating artist, guests can pick up an Art in the Gardens guide at Bethea Welcome Center, 91 N.
