An evening pairing wine and art with an exclusive opportunity to be the first to collect artwork from SE CLT Gallery’s spring show, Reverberate, engage with the artists, and experience the traveling exhibition at McColl Center mounted by The Paglees, fresh from its run at SAI Chicago. Reverberate will not open to the public until May 30, 2025.
Wine: Experience the mastery of Mere’s Concierge and select wines, each paired perfectly with the artwork on view. Learn about the structure and history of each wine, explore the chemistry between the art of winemaking and the making of art.
Art: The evening begins with a sparkling selection each guest will enjoy as they walk through the southeast debut of the critically acclaimed traveling exhibition, The Paglees: Between Reason and Madness. This multi-faceted show features mixed-media, works on paper, fabric, and canvas, sculpture, performance, photography, installation, and moving image that center the reason and wisdom of brown women of the Global South and diaspora. It is a rich and colorful celebration of a creative feminist future.
The pairing experience continues with thoughtful selections to enhance the viewing of Reverberate, a contemporary exhibition on the third-floor gallery at McColl. Here, attendees will be the first to view and collect artwork from the artists of Reverberate, an exhibition curated by SE CLT Gallery, named Charlotte Magazine’s Best Art Gallery for seven years running. This exhibition embraces the value of remembering, the importance of reflection, and the artistic imperative to resist dismantling of progress. In connection with the walk-through of the show, guests will also engage with the artists of Reverberate. A fun, facilitated opportunity to ask questions, share thoughts, and spur discussion through the lens of art.
