Jim McDade: Artist in Memorial Exhibit

Artist in Memorial Exhibit at the Hiddenite Center

In lieu of its Emerging Artist feature this month,  the Hiddenite Center is instead taking the opportunity to pay tribute in memorial to the late artist, Jim McDade of Statesville, NC.  McDade was a name synonymous with the Statesville Artist Guild and the Iredell Arts Council.  He was a gifted painter in his own right but worked tirelessly in promoting arts in the area and assisting other artists as well.  The Hiddenite Center is honored to have works by McDade on display.

The Hiddenite Center wishes to extend a heartfelt thank you to Jim McDade’s son, Jeff, for the loan of his father’s work in this feature.  Jeff is happy to remember his father and share his talent in memorial.  This very special exhibit will be on display on the third floor of the Hiddenite Center’s Lucas Mansion (316 Hiddenite Church Rd, Hiddenite).  As always, art exhibits at the Hiddenite Center are free and open to the public. Visit the Lucas Mansion from 10 am – 4:30 pm on weekdays and 10 am – 3 pm on Saturdays.
