Selected drawings by Asheville artist Heather Lewis will be on view from April 2-28 in UNC Asheville's Blowers Gallery.

Her work has been shown in galleries in the United States and abroad, including the Hunter College/Times Square Gallery in New York; the Ewing Gallery at the University of Tennessee; the Queen’s Road Gallery, in Aberdeen, Scotland; and the Threesome Gallery, in Oslo, Norway.
