Beyond the Horizon 

April 30 - June 15, 2024

Collierville artist Jennifer Mannon draws inspiration for her painting practice from moments spent outdoors, particularly during walks with her husband or while on the water at Pickwick State Park. Captivated by the beauty of nature's creations, she finds solace in the horizon's distant tree lines and expansive sky. Utilizing photographs taken during these moments as a starting point, her paintings evoke a sense of hope and reassurance, reflecting her belief in God's presence and guidance, both in the present and beyond the horizon.

GiddyUP! Youth Empowerment Initiative

Explore ten entrepreneurial projects aimed at enriching the equestrian ecosystem designed by students in the BridgeUP GiddyUP program at Collierville’s own Southern Blues Equestrian Center (SBEC), displayed alongside paintings by program mentor and visual artist José Valverde.

How does BridgeUP GiddyUP work? Launched in 2021 by SBEC in partnership with the Helen Gurley Brown Foundation, the program offers Whitehaven youth access to personal development through horseback riding. Completely free of charge, accepted students receive transportation to Collierville for two weekly riding lessons, healthy meals, and complementary activities led by mentorship leaders in the broader MidSouth community. Across three years of operation, youth riders in the program report feeling more confident and better able to work with peers, while parents have observed improved academic performance and aspirations for higher education.
