"GREENSBORO, NC – When Geeksboro invited artists
from across the region to submit artwork for a show inspired by the
films of Wes Anderson, they had no idea that they would receive more than 100
individual pieces.
Now
the public will get their first chance to see all of the fantastic artwork when
Geeksboro hosts the opening gala for Find Something You Love: A Wes Anderson
Themed Art Show from 6-8 p.m. Saturday, September 12th.
The
art show will feature a Wes Anderson movie character costume contest and music
from Anderson’s films. Additionally, there will be an exclusive meet and greet
with professional North Carolina artist Natalie Andrewson, who will be signing
special prints she created exclusively for Geeksboro.
“It’s
totally ridiculous and awesome,” says Kristin Mehaffey, Junior Events
Coordinator at Geeksboro, in reference to both the quantity and quality of
submissions.
Submitted
by artists as far away as Philadelphia and Atlanta, the artwork features
characters, scenes, props and motifs from Anderson’s films, which include “The
Royal Tenenbaums,” “Moonrise Kingdom,” “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” “Fantastic
Mr. Fox” and “Rushmore.”
