This free art show is the longest-running in North Carolina (59 years and counting!). Browse hundreds of new artworks created by local artists, visit a holiday-themed gallery, and attend the “Art After Dark” event on Friday, October 18. The Bowl & Vessel Show is held along with the art show, and North Carolina artists are invited to enter their work. All profits go to a program that helps local art teachers with supplies and grants for projects and awards scholarships to artistically talented high school seniors.
