Building upon the success of previous exhibitions like Howard Finster ’ s “ A Feeling Come Over Me ”, Callanwolde Fine Arts Center continues to expand its audience and offer high - caliber arts programming . The " Warrior Women " exhibition aligns with our mission to promote arts education and creative expression within the Atlanta community . The combination of rich narrative and emotional connection with technical skill and expertise provide a wealth of topics from which we can pull from to create meaningful programming . Howard Finster Exhibition Longtime Callanwolde pottery instructor , Jennie Ashcraft Berman , and founding Pottery Director , Rick Berman , loaned their private collection of work by Howard Finster for an exhibition entitled “ A Feeling Come Over Me ”. Howard ’ s first “ work of art ” along with many unique found objects were on display . Having built a close relationship with Mr . Finster as his art dealer , Rick Berman treated guests with fascinating stories of his days at Paradise Gardens . For this exhibition we offered timed RSVPs . Entry was free with a suggested donation . This donation model raised over $ 5 , 000 towards arts programming during the two week exhibition . Similarly , the Warrior Women exhibition would be open to all , with attendees encouraged to donate as they are able . Workshops would be ticketed , and other programming would be a mix of private and public events . Precedent and Expansion:
