Cally Curtis

2022 has been a great year for me so far. I was awarded a 2022 grant by the United Arts Council of Raleigh and Wake County (unitedarts.org).  I became a member of and was interview by the Chatham Arts Council ( Meet This Artist: Writer and Painter Cally Curtis – Chatham Arts Council).  And became a co-chair of the CAG Art Education Committee. My work is very much inspired by the marvelous people and cultures I’ve to come to know in my life and travels. Our family lived in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe, Southern Africa until I left for university in the States. I graduated from UGA with a B.F.A. in Fine Art and Art Education, with a minor in Journalism. Since then, I have lived in or visited many places throughout the USA, Central America and Europe.  I work mostly in acrylics and mixed-media, but also love floral and fabric design. I really hope you take in our 2022 Chatham Artists Guild Tour in this December.  We’re proud to be celebrating its 30th year!
