Vernon Grant's Leap into Spring!
to
Museum of York County 4621 Mt. Gallant Road, Rock Hill, South Carolina 29732
This exhibition features a wide array of original and published artworks with springtime themes created by Grant from the 1930s through the 1970s. Rendered for magazine covers, storybooks and product advertisements, these delightful illustrations showcase his keen wit, mastery of color and fanciful flair for design. Grant's role in cofounding Rock Hill's annual Come See Me Spring Festival and creating its mascot, Glen the Frog, will be highlighted with promotional artwork created by Grant from 1962 through 1986.
During this same time frame, the Vernon Grant Gallery may display a selection of past Come See Me poster designs created by Grant, and the 2016 coloring contest entries may be displayed in the auditorium.
