I am reminded of the great artist that have all come before us and how in almost all cases these artist surrounded themselves in a community of other fellow artist, which leads my thoughts to “as iron sharpens iron so should you sharpen one another.”

Our first meeting for Laurel Underground Arts was a great success. In short, what was discussed at that meeting was that this movement is what many people have been desiring for Laurel for quite a long while. Not that this is the first attempt, but it is unique. We can push forward and make Laurel Underground Arts a community that artists who want to grow can take part in.

So in having said that here are the first efforts of Laurel Underground Arts:

1. We are creating a LUA Facebook group so everyone including non-artists can appreciate LUA.

2. Summer Art Show: June 12th 6-9pm | Lee’s Coffee and Tea| 409 West Oak Street | Laurel, MS. Please contact Eric Roberts or Jason Kimes to submit artwork: email eric@robertscreative.net or jkimes@megagate.com
