Join the Madison-Morgan Cultural Center for on Friday, November 11 from 2-4pm for the opening reception of the "Cavalcade of Stars" exhibit.
"Cavalcade of Stars" features the work of Joni Mabe, who is the creator of Everything Elvis at the Loudermilk Boarding House Museum in Cornelia, Georgia. Mabe began making Elvis inspired work in 1977. She also began acquiring Elvis-related memorabilia and purported relics of the King and eventually based her graduate show around this burgeoning collection of artworks and carefully selected objects. The work was then incorporated into her Traveling Panoramic Encyclopedia of Everything Elvis which travelled for 14 years across the country and Europe before being permanently installed in the boarding house museum.
For the Madison Morgan Cultural Center, she will be presenting a group of her glitter mosaics. These portraits feature Elvis Presley, Otis Redding, Ty Cobb, Steve McQueen, P.T. Barnum and other luminaries of the entertainment world—a true Cavalcade of Stars.
