This exhibition is an all-media exhibition that was open to artists working in the Lowcountry region of South Carolina and Georgia. Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to support our natural environment and our local art community. Local artists continue to gain inspiration from the spectacular Lowcountry landscape. Through Earth Inspired 2009, artists and the artwork they create will have a chance to show their support for an organization, the CCL, that is making great strides to conserve this unique region.
