Renata Keep
CAC honors a Virginia Beach legend that has had a profound influence on the arts in our community, from providing instruction and support to artists across Hampton Roads, including Elizabeth Huey, to working to raise the funds that allowed CAC to construct the building that it occupies today. Keep's lively and colorful oil paintings remind us of the talent and vision of this remarkable woman.
These exhibitions are part of Minds Wide Open: Virginia Celebrates Women in the Arts
