Published 12:04 pm Wednesday, September 9, 2026 TIFTON — Starting Sept. 12, Tifton’s Tuesday Colorists will bring “Tapestry: The Tuesday Colorists” to the Georgia Museum of Agriculture (GMA) at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. The exhibit will showcase not only the group’s creativity and style but also its warmth and friendship. The Tuesday Colorists, Jennifer Buckley McCall, Heather Compton, Brenda Sutton Rose and Gladys Sveide, began working together about 15 years ago. The group began with a sip-and-paint event. A nervous Sveide received encouragement from Rose, and their friendship grew as the two painted together whenever Sveide visited from Sweden. Eventually, Rose and Sveide formed the Tuesday Colorists, and Compton and McCall later joined them. Their evenings spent painting are filled with friendship, laughter, tears, and the warmth of shared creativity. “Like a golden thread woven through their canvases, the Colorists’ friendship is visible in the art they have created separately, yet together,” said Polly Huff, curator and archivist of ABAC’s GMA. “Over time, each of the four artists has cultivated deep audience respect, and the four have blossomed into creative powerhouses,” Huff added. “Tapestry: The Tuesday Colorists” opens at 5 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 12, with a reception featuring a gallery talk with the four artists, a tour of the exhibit and a giveaway featuring a print from each of the Colorists. The show will continue as a GMA exhibit through Dec. 12.…
