Tomorrow will mark the beginning of the Memphis Botanic Garden's exciting new art exhibit, Incognito, running until January 31st. The show will feature 80 Mid-South artists in a collection of original, unsigned works, open and free to the public and available during regular hours in the Visitors Center Gallery. The exhibition will culminate in a dual Gala and Silent Auction on January 20th, which will give admirers and buyers the opportunity to meet with the artists, on hand to sign their work for winning bidders. Tickets to the gala event are $25 for members and $35 for non-members, benefiting the Botanic Garden's educational and outreach programs, carried out over its 96 acres with 23 specialty gardens including My Big Backyard Children's Garden, the first nationally certified Nature Explore Classroom in Tennessee. Please call 636-4131 for tickets or further information.

It is going to be a fun show. Here's the deal, come by MBG's and view the 10"x10" works. Exhibit is up today...The artists are "Incognito" so no signatures on plantings! You find your favorite work, buy a ticket to the party and come bid on what you love instead of who you know! Artists have signed the back and will sign the work for you when purchased. Come see if you can find your favorite artist's work!

Great way to support the Garden, have some fun and buy some very good art by some of your favorite artists!
