The (R)evolving Arts Gallery in the Times-News The Revolving Arts Gallery
Beth Beasley, a local journalist, did a story on The Revolving Arts Gallery. It ended up making the Wednesday Times-News Weekly front page and the front page of the Blue Ridge Living section on Sunday.  Two slightly different stories ran but the only web link we have is from the Sunday paper.  We are grateful for the publicity.

Please put a save a date on your calendar for the first two weeks in October.

The Revolving Arts Gallery is just one of the many community partners, artists and small business owners who are supporting this new venture.

There will be a kick off reception on October 1st by the Council and subsequent events throughout the city for 10 days. Featured events include the 50th year of Art on Main (Oct 2-4) and the annual artist’s OPEN STUDIO Tour the second weekend (Oct 9-10).
