Meet the artist on Thursday, August 8th when Elizabeth gives a gallery talk at 6pm.

Continuing a new tradition at the Morean, we are proud to present last year’s Margaret Murphy Steward Best of Show winner, Elizabeth Barenis.

Elizabeth Barenis is a professional artist living in St. Petersburg, Florida. Though she has had family in this area for over 45 years, her roots stem from the Mississippi Delta, where she was born and raised as the daughter of music store owners. She received her education from the Mississippi School for Math and Science, and Sarah Lawrence College in New York.
