Apalachicola welcomes newest folk art gallery

The City of Apalachicola would like to extend a hardy welcome to the city’s newest folk art gallery “The Gallery @ 49 Palmetto” located at 49 Avenue G in Historic Apalachicola.

Owned by our very own Anna-Maria Cannatella the gallery will be open this Saturday, June 26, from 6:00PM to 9:00PM EDT.

The opening event will feature visionary artist Butch Anthony, who The New York Times recently featured as the most homespun and prodigious creative spirit in folk art today.

Anthony also coined the phrase "intertwanglelism" to describe his sculptural works made from found and salvaged objects. The artist will be present at the opening to talk about his unique artistic style with exhibits running through the month of July.
