Gallery holds small works show
Haywood County Arts Council’s Gallery 86 announces its annual small works show, “It’s a Small, Small Work 2012,” from Wednesday, Nov. 14 through Saturday, Dec. 29.
Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Artist receptions will be held from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 18, in conjunction with Downtown Waynesville’s Holiday Open House and from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7, during Art After Dark.
The show provides a unique opportunity to purchase original art at modest prices. Most artwork is priced between $20 and $80. No work is priced over $300. Artwork is sold off the wall in a “pay and walk away” style. The show changes a little each week with new pieces displayed where ones were sold.
Artists hail from the Blue Ridge National Heritage Area, which encompasses the 25 westernmost counties in North Carolina. The show challenges artists to create works smaller than 12 inches in every dimension, including base, matting and frame, etc.
