AWAKENING THE SPIRIT: The Legacy of Gloria Tara Lowery

The Museum of the Southeast American Indian invites you to join us as we celebrate the life and art of the late Lumbee artist Gloria Tara Lowery.

Drawing inspiration from nature and her Lumbee culture, her work continues to encourage us to look, listen and explore the beauty of things seen and unseen. Using watercolors, acrylics, pine needles and other mixed media, we experience her love of landscapes, her treasured home in Robeson County and her connection with her ancestors. Through her work, she created a space where our spirits are free to see what the creator has in store for us all. She once said, "Art is not what I do, it's who I am." We are so thankful that she left so much beauty for us to explore. 

Open for viewing at the Museum of the Southeast American Indian June 2021 - February 2022
