Certified by the National Park Service as the northern trailhead of the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail, the Abingdon Muster Grounds is a picturesque 9-acre park with significant history. When a call was issued for militia to respond to British Major Patrick Ferguson s threat that, he would march his army over the mountains, hang their leaders, and lay their country waste with fire and sword, men from all over the region moved into action. Under the leadership of Colonel William Campbell, 400 Virginians set out to join patriot militia from modern-day Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. After a two week campaign, the Overmountain Men fought the Battle of Kings Mountain with overwhelming success. Thomas Jefferson said it was the turn of the tide of success which terminated the Revolutionary War, with the seal of our independence . The Keller Interpretive Center, located at the Abingdon Muster Grounds, houses southwest Virginia s premier Revolutionary War exhibits. Artifacts associated with backcountry Virginia and the Battle of Kings Mountain are on display.

5. Inspired By Nature ~ Oil Paintings By Gary Dagnan
Friday, August 11th, 2017
@The Gallery@ Barr Photographics LLC
Abingdon, VA
The Gallery @ Barr Photographics announces the fourth installment of the Corner Gallery s 2017 exhibition series with an offering of oil paintings by Knoxville, TN artist Gary Dagnan entitled Inspired By Nature . Gary has been drawing and painting since childhood. From a very early age, he was fascinated by how artists were able to create works of art by simply observing the world around them. He was impressed with the well-known illustrators of that time, such as Norman Rockwell, Jon Whitcomb and Stevan Dohanos who created paintings and illustrations for magazines such as Post and Life. He dreamed that he would someday be an artist like them. Gary was born in the small town of Jasper, Tennessee and grew up in the East Tennessee area. At the age of eleven his family moved to Knoxville, Tennessee where he later attended Bearden high school. He was fortunate to have had an outstanding art teacher, Marilyn Heilman, who took a special interest in his talent and encouraged him to pursue art as a career. After high school, Gary attended the University of Tennessee, Knoxville where he majored in Graphic Design with an emphasis on painting and drawing. In his junior year of college Gary was offered a part-time position with the University of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service as a graphic designer. After graduating, he accepted a permanent position as Graphic Design Specialist with the Agricultural Extension Service. Gary graduated from the University of Tennessee in 1970, where he earned a BFA degree in Graphic Design and in 1985 an MS degree in Art Education. He retired from the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture where he was employed as a Graphic Designer, Associate Professor and Illustrator for 37 years. He now devotes full time to fine-art painting. His inspiration comes from the rural landscapes of the East Tennessee area. Most of his paintings are of the mountains, hills, lakes and structures of the East Tennessee area. He gets inspiration from the changing light and colors that come from the distinctly different seasons of the South. Many of his paintings are also of places and scenes where he and his wife, Diane, have traveled. Gary was fortunate that he had teachers, throughout his school years, which recognized his talent and interest in art. Gary began painting watercolors in 1968, as an art student at the University of Tennessee. His early work
