Ozark Folk Art Paintings of Essie Ward

August 17 – October 26, 2024

Folk artist Essie Treat Ward was born in 1902 in Searcy County, where she resided until her death in 1981. Often called the “Grandma Moses of the Ozarks,” Essie was featured at the Smithsonian’s Festival of American Folklife in Washington, D.C. in 1970. Her pieces chronicle the often-humorous everyday life in the Ozarks of fictional characters Miranda and Hezzakiah.
