The celebration will take place Oct. 2 and 3 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and will highlight the work of acclaimed artisans and feature the work of O’More alumni and students.
“Les Arts O’More is a unique opportunity for Middle Tennesseans to enjoy a weekend of fashion, art and music,” said Dr. Mark Hilliard, president of O’More College of Design. “This celebration helps us fulfill our mission of training the whole person in a creative and fun approach, a vision our founder, the late Mrs. Eloise Pitts O’More, also shared.”
The festival activities are designed to encourage further interest in design arts. During the celebration, the campus of O’More College of Design will be transformed into an 1890s Paris-themed festival with venues for artist demonstrations, strolling musicians, cafe-themed food and a special area for children’s art activities. Also featured will be guided tours of Abbey Leix Mansion (the jewel of the O’More College of Design’s campus) led by renowned historian John Kiser, a display of O’More students’ work and a juried show of the finest artists and artisans in our region. Items will be for sale to the public.
