Art Exhibition and Reception at the Joslin House

The City of Oaks Foundation is delighted to host an exhibition of paintings by Raleigh artist Carol Spruill at the Joslin House. An opening reception with Carol will be held from 3:00 - 5:30 on Sunday afternoon, September 18, 2022. Refreshments will be served.

“Pursuit of Happiness II,” by Carol Spruill

Some of the paintings in the exhibition will be offered for sale and others will be exhibition only. During the opening, the artist will also have available for sale scarves, trays, pillows, tote bags, and paper and metal prints that incorporate images of her paintings. For example, the painting below served as the inspiration for a delightful collection of such accessories which will be offered at the opening event.

Carol Spruill’s “Pines and Boats.”

The Joslin House and Garden is located at 2431 West Lake Drive in Raleigh. Before or after the viewing, visitors are welcome to walk through the 4.3-acre garden, the legacy of William and Mary Coker Joslin and now part of the Raleigh Parks system. Please note that a few off-street parking spaces are available around the paved circle outside the Joslin House for those unable to walk up the rather hilly driveway. Others are asked to park on the street.

The exhibition continues through Sunday, October 30, 2022. After the opening event, the paintings may be viewed by appointment; please email nelldjoslin@gmail.com. Viewings are available in the evenings and on weekends if needed.
