New Exhibition Opens: “IMPRESSED: Print, Paint, Dye, Repeat” [November 15 - January 22, 2023] opens on Saturday, November 5.
This exhibition runs the gamut of hand-crafted gifting with artists and studios participating together to turn Artsville Collective into a gift shop for the holidays. We extend a special thanks to Local Cloth for sponsoring the works of four advanced fiber artists, NC Glass Center for introducing us to glass blower Christian Hessler who is an exciting artist new to Asheville, and The Encaustic Studio at Pink Dog Creative where Lynn Bregman Blass and partner Sarah St. Laurent create mixed media and encaustic collections. Other artists include Leo Monahan, Cynthia Llanes, and Daryl Slaton.
Artsville Collective’s Holiday Party: On Saturday, November 12 from 2:30-5pm at Artsville Gallery at Marquee.
Join the Artsville community in celebrating 2022’s featured artists, speakers, and friends. This is a free event and all artists and art lovers are welcome. Shop our holiday market while you’re there!
