YMI Cultural Center in Asheville, NC, Features Works by Jocelyn King-Delay

The YMI Cultural Center in Asheville, NC, is pleased to present Clay and Paint: Changes and Obsessions, an African American visual arts exhibition by Jocelyn King-Delay. The exhibit by the mainly self-taught artist will be on display from May 6 through June 30, 2000.

King-Delay has a bachelor's of science degree in Criminology from Ohio State University and a Master's of Education and Community Agency Counseling degree from NC State University. She has spent much of her life helping youth rehabilitate their lives. She has worked as a correctional case analyst for a youth correctional center in Raleigh, NC, and as a parole officer for Wake County Correctional Centers.

When King-Delay realized how important creative expression was to her and her lifestyle, she made a career change and opened the Peace of Mind Counseling Center. This has afforded her the opportunity to create art for public and private exhibitions.

King-Delay's fascinating 3-dimensional pieces of polymer clay and paint are influenced by a life-long dream to capture beauty in people and in things.

YMICC programs are partially funded by a grant from the NC Arts Council, a state agency; The Asheville Area Arts Council, The National Endowment for the Arts, Buncombe County, and supported in general by the City of Asheville Department of Parks and Recreation.
