“Between the Springmaid Sheets” Exhibit Opening

“Between the Springmaid Sheets,” an exhibit of works of art from legendary Colonel Elliott Springs’ daring 1940s and 1950s ad campaign, will be on view for the months of November and December in Lancaster, S.C. The controversial campaign is credited with rescuing a struggling textile business and helping Springs Cotton Mills become a giant of the industry. “Between the Springmaid Sheets” will be exhibited in the Lancaster County Council of the Arts’ galleries at the historic Springs House, with a public reception from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 15, 2015. “Between the Springmaid Sheets” is on loan from the Springs Close Family Archives at the White Homestead in Fort Mill, curated by Karen Derksen, director of Winthrop University Galleries. Hours for the historic Springs House are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and 8 a.m. to noon Fridays. The exhibit is sponsored by the City of Lancaster in partnership with Lancaster County Council of the Arts. For more information, visit www.lancastercitysc.com.
