This annual event celebrates the artistic legacy of groundbreaking sculptor William Edmondson, the first African American to receive a solo exhibit at New York's Museum of Modern Art in 1937. His renowned works are now held in major museums throughout America and command prices in excess of $700,00. He lived in his home in Edgehill at 1434 14th Avenue South, where he sculpted his artworks, up until his death in 1951.
