Dyersburg State Hosts Art Exhibit at the Jimmy Naifeh Center

DSCC will host an art exhibit by artist Patricia Denton Turner.

Dyersburg State Community College (DSCC) will host an art exhibit by artist Patricia Denton Turner. The exhibit will be on display inside the Learning Resource Center (LRC) at the Jimmy Naifeh Center in Covington, TN, through the end of November. In addition, an artist reception is planned for Monday, September 26, from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. The exhibit and reception are open to the public.

Having a family history of artists, Patsy’s heritage endeavor continues. Patsy is a self-taught artist from West Tennessee. She paints in various mediums and styles with acrylic, watercolor, oil, acrylic pours, and colored pencils. Patsy said, “As a member of the Tipton Art League, Artists’ Link of Memphis, and Mid-South Art League, opportunities to teach, share works, participate in exhibits as well as artists’ promotions are endeavors that are important to me.”

Patsy’s artworks are displayed throughout several U.S. states in libraries, museums, winery’s, community colleges, galleries, churches, festivals, local businesses, and TV stations. Her works are highlighted at the WKNO Gallery 1091, on social media and in the 2021 Yearbook of the Mid-South artists Present Amazing Art from NEAR AND FAR. A filing certificate for one of Patsy’s watercolor exhibits was submitted by a gallery to Artmajeur, Montpellier, France.
