It’s hard to say if R.A. Miller would have enjoyed being the center of attention at his 100th birthday party. The legendary folk artist, preacher and East Hall resident died in 2006, but his lasting legacy of homespun creations lives on. So even in his absence, the Quinlan Visual Arts Center in Gainesville will mark the centennial of his birth with a birthday party from 12:30-1:30 p.m. Monday, July 23.
