GCSC Visual and Performing Arts Presents Paradise Revisited
January 26 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
The Visual & Performing Arts Division of Gulf Coast State College presents Paradise Revisited by Michelle Jones. The rich, colorful paintings in the exhibit are inspired by the landscape of the Gulf Coast. Just like the Gulf Coast, they are at once dazzling and confrontational. The beauty of the images draws you in, only to reveal the surprises within.

After a decade in Boston, she returned to the South and now resides in Mobile, AL. Her recent solo exhibitions include the Alabama Contemporary Art Center and the Kentucky Art Center.
