Photographer Minuette Floyd

Floyd's interest in camp meetings derived from her personal experiences of attending camp meetings in North Carolina. This exhibit examines the traditions, history, events and spirit of the camp meetings as seen through the eyes of adults and children. This exhibit is funded in part by the SC Arts Commission, which receives support from the National Endowment for the Arts, and the South Carolina Humanities Council.

A graduate of Winston-Salem State University, Floyd also holds a masters degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and a doctorate degree from Florida State University. Currently an assistant professor at the University of South Carolina, she serves on the education advisory committee for the Columbia Museum of Art and the advisory council for the McKissick Museum.
