COLUMBUS, Miss. (WCBI) – Peru takes center stage at the Rosenzweig Arts center this month. In conjunction with its Big Read program, the Columbus Arts Council is featuring an exhibit by internationally known photographer Liese Ricketts.

The Chicago-based artist, who lived in Peru in her youth, has spent the last 15 years documenting the country and its people.

“I’ve always loved Peru. It’s a country of enormous diversity. There is a multitude of different cultures there, and it’s exciting to learn about.”

The Exhibit opens Thursday night and runs through the end of February.
