Steve Wariner
Steve Wariner will have his watercolors on display at the Tennessee State Museum on Oct. 11. The exhibition, which is part of three new exhibits centered around a musical theme, will include 21 of Wariner’s favorite paintings. The paintings will be on display through Dec. 29 and the exhibit is open to the public free of charge.
“I am absolutely thrilled at this tremendous opportunity to have my art on display at the Tennessee State Museum,” said Wariner. “My work has been exhibited occasionally here-and-there over the years but never like this or at this level. This truly is a first for me…I am very grateful.”
