Opening Reception: Head, Heart, and Hand by Tommy Simpson | Free Art Event

Meet the Imaginist: An Evening with Artist Tommy Simpson

Join us for the opening reception of "Head, Heart, and Hand," featuring the imaginative works of renowned artist Tommy Simpson. This is your chance to be among the first to experience Simpson's whimsical painted furniture and sculptural pieces that have captivated collectors and earned him a place in the Smithsonian American Art Museum's collection.
Meet the artist himself and hear the stories behind his enchanting creations—works that transform functional objects into vibrant three-dimensional canvases filled with color, humor, and heart. As a self-described "imaginist," Simpson crafts each piece by combining mixed woods and found objects in ways that invite wonder and spark conversation.
Enjoy light refreshments while exploring the exhibition, and have the first opportunity to purchase pieces for your own collection. Whether you're an art enthusiast, a collector, or simply curious about Simpson's distinctive approach to craft, this evening promises inspiration and delight.
