We had an amazing crowd for the "Georgia Bellflowers" opening reception on Sunday, including one of the most packed gallery talks ever. Many of Gene Thomas's family members were there, and the Athens Historical Society folks were a lot of fun. Lots of cookies were eaten and punch consumed. Photos are above, including several of lenders to the exhibition posing with their furniture. Also, the books are now available in the shop, for a mere $16.

Thanks for letting AHS celebrate this exhibition with you! Ashley has done a wonderful job pulling together so much information & locating so many of Gene Thomas's pieces. We enjoyed Ashley's illustrated lecture very much, too. Well done!
PS I counted 168 noses in the auditorium!
