Coke is celebrating its 125th anniversary this year. In honor of this iconic southern company, the Center for the Study of the American South will be exhibiting selections from Stephen and Sandra Rich’s personal Coca-Cola memorabilia collection.
Stephen Rich is a former executive of the Coca-Cola Corporation and has a very large and eclectic private collection of Coke artifacts. We will be bringing a portion of his collection to the Love House and Hutchins Forum for display, including a painting by acclaimed folk artist Howard Finster.
The exhibition will be on view M-F, 9–5, through the Fall 2011 semester. Please join us for an opening reception on Thursday, September 22, 5:30 pm, Love House & Hutchins Forum.
