your chance to peek behind the curtain!

Many people have asked me, "How do you do this?"  If you're one who'd like to know, now is your opportunity to find out.  In a show entitled Thinking Art Into Being: Ruth Miller's Contemporary Embroidery, I will be laying out my entire working process from inspiration to finished tapestry.  In conjunction with the art itself will be written descriptions of all I think may not be immediately evident just by looking.   If you love working with your hands and are unable to attend one of my tapestry seminars or you're an art-lover who simply wants to peek behind the curtain, you can spend time soaking it all in.  This exhibition will be on view at the Ohr-O'Keefe Museum of Art
www.georgeohr.org/admissions/ in its Beau Rivage Resort and Casino Gallery of African American Art from June 13, 2017 until August 19, 2017.  It is funded by the Mississippi Arts Commission, a state agency, and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.

The Ohr-O'Keefe Museum of Art, located at 386 Beach Boulevard, Biloxi MS 39530, was founded to preserve and promote the unique legacy of Biloxi potter George E. Ohr, emancipated craftsman Pleasant Reed and artist/architect Frank Gehry who designed its award-winning campus.  This location is one of the high points along Highway 90 which stretches from Alabama to Texas along the scenic Gulf of Mexico.  In addition to the museum, the Mississippi section of Highway 90 is lined with stately mansions and majestic Live Oaks interspersed with exciting attractions, welcoming accommodations and enticing eateries to help you make a day or a week of your visit.  Are you more laid-back?  Come visit the museum and then sip a lemonade on the sand while watching the sun set over the gulf.
