Tea in the Tempest Opening Reception
May 9, 2025 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Pink Dog Creative Gallery presents Tea in the Tempest, an evocative collaborative exhibition by mixed media artist Heather Divoky and textile artist Emelie Weber Wade. Originally envisioned as Tea Time for Two, a show celebrating creative partnership, the concept evolved in response to Hurricane Helene’s impact.
Through intricate hand-drawn works, sculptural crowns, woven inlay wall pieces, and non-traditional quilts, Divoky and Wade explore themes of loss, transformation, and renewal. The exhibition features three large-scale collaborative installations, inviting visitors to reflect on resilience in the face of upheaval.
Discover how art can be a vessel for healing at this thought-provoking exhibition in Asheville’s River Arts District.
