THIRD FRIDAY DEC. 18th

We had a great night. The gallery was so festive, lights, trees, and sounds of beautiful classical & holiday music echoed throughout the gallery. Music  on keyboard was provided by Bill Carpenter & Svetlana Yashirin. We had many patrons and many were there to support our Featured Artists Greg Sparling. The festive season inspired our artists to fill the gallery with prefect last minute gifts and sales were great!! The gallery was overflowing with new artwork and art from our recently Juried Winter Show. At the end of the evening Julie Childers tallied up the People’s Choice Award from the Winter Show and we were very delighted to hear Greg Sparling won. It was a great way to end a beautiful Night. Hope everyone has a safe & happy holiday, & Happy New Year. Jane Chesnut
