THOMASVILLE, Georgia - Decades of stories captured across more than 70 countries will come together at Thomasville Center for the Arts Thursday, Aug. 20, as Emmy Award-winning photographer and photojournalist Richard Bickel presents "No Borders," on view through Oct. 30 in the Center’s Main Floor Galleries. The exhibition begins with an opening reception from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 20, offering the community an opportunity to experience Bickel’s inspiring work and welcome the acclaimed photojournalist to Thomasville. The reception is free and open to the public. Through "No Borders," Bickel draws distinct connections between communities that may appear worlds apart.
