Uptown Art Walk on Thursday, May 8

On Thursday, May 8, I will be participating in the Uptown Art Walk in Shelby.  Ronnie Blackburn and I will be at Allen Griffin Pottery from 5:30 to 7:30 pm.  Our work will be available for sale and I think there is a pretty good chance you could watch a demonstration if that is something that interests you.  There is a lot going on in Uptown Shelby that evening.  I hope that you will come see us.

Here is the information from the press release:

Showcasing the vibrancy of local artists, galleries and art friendly spaces throughout Uptown Shelby, we welcome visitors on Thursday, May 8 for an Uptown Art Walk. In conjunction with the Cleveland County Arts Council “Moments in Time” opening reception, ten Uptown businesses will host a variety of local artists for demonstrations, exhibits, refreshments and other special events. The Art Walk will include a spectrum of visual arts – including pottery, sketchings, quilts, woodworking, jewelry, fiber arts, and journals – but will also include other forms of art such as literature and live music. Maps for the event will be available at the participating venues starting May 1.
