    KNOXVILLE WATERCOLOR SOCIETY


    In 1963, a group of 
    Knoxville artists was invited by the late Kermit (Buck) Ewing, Head of the 
    University of Tennessee Art Department, to participate in an exhibition of 
    watercolor paintings at the University’s McClung Museum. During the opening 
    reception, Mr. Ewing noted the Knoxville area did not have an organization for 
    artists who share the common interest of painting in aqueous media. He suggested 
    that those artists exhibiting in the McClung show could be the nucleus for such 
    an association. Thus, was the formation of the Knoxville Watercolor Society with 
    Laura Bagwell serving as the first President.

    DEL MCCOURY BAND & FRIENDS


    For more than fifty years, Del McCoury ‘s music has defined authenticity for hard core bluegrass fans as well as a growing number of fans among those only vaguely familiar with the genre. McCoury is something special, a living link to the days when bluegrass was made only in hillbilly honkytonks, schoolhouse shows and on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry, yet also a commandingly vital presence today, from prime time and late night talk show TV to music festivals where audiences number in the hundreds of thousands.

He has never repeated his successes. For better or for worse, Dylan has always pushed his work ahead.
