The American Watercolor Society, founded in 1866, is the pre-eminent international watercolor organization. For more than 150 years, it has been renowned for its art and the artists who have been selected as members. Among those artists who have been members of the Society, include American Impressionist, Childe Hassam, regionalist Edward Hopper and Charles Burchfield and one of America's best known and celebrated artists, Andrew Wyeth. The Pryor Gallery and Columbia State Community College are extremely proud to once again host this important international exhibit. We hope that everyone within the middle Tennessee and northern Alabama area will take the opportunity to visit the Pryor Gallery and view these wonderful paintings.
