September 2026 Arts: Corey Pemberton’s Living Well Opens at the Mint

Corey Pemberton: Living Well opened September 19 at Mint Museum Uptown and is scheduled through January 31, 2027. The museum announced more than 70 works by the Los Angeles-based contemporary artist. Glass objects, painting and mixed media invite viewers to think about things kept at home and the histories they carry.

The long run gives Charlotte visitors time to encounter the work more than once. Pemberton’s glass practice can make familiar objects feel newly deliberate, while the exhibition’s title points toward care, resilience and the everyday choices involved in living well. These themes come from the museum’s presentation; this is a sourced preview of the show’s opening, not a firsthand review.

The Mint marked September 19 with a public celebration and vendor market. Consult the museum for current hours, admission and programs, and its exhibition page for artist and curatorial details. This September retrospective was published on September 27, 2026.
