If you're in North Carolina come see the show.

Have you stopped by the gallery to see our September show yet? Maybe you’ve driven by the front of the building and noticed the massive painting on an easel outside? It (and the exhibit) is the work of local artist, David Nelson Collins! This gorgeous show features paintings made en plein air on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Come see the show Monday-Friday from 10am-5pm through the end of the month. David will also be hosting a special gallery talk this Sunday, September 25th, at noon. Come out to support some local art!
