SO. THOMASTON — The second Tea and Talk at the Kelpie Gallery on Sunday, February 28 at 2 p.m. will feature The Meaning of Flowers in Art. Flowers have appeared in works of art since the beginning of time, but is it just their beauty that has inspired artists? Lauren Lewis, painting conservator and co-owner of The Kelpie Gallery, will speak about the symbolism of flowers in the art from the Renaissance to the present. Following the talk, The Kelpie Gallery will serve a traditional afternoon tea with some floral surprises.
