Saluda’s 130th Birthday Celebration committee is pleased to announce an art exhibit in Saluda Oct. 28 and 29 from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Local artists will exhibit works of art that represent Saluda images. “Visions of Saluda” art will include paintings, woodworking, pottery, photography, fabric art and more.
The exhibit will be held in the Upper Floor of Historic Thompson’s Store/Ward’s Grill, 24 Greenville St. in Saluda. Admission is free and there is an elevator in the building for easy access to the exhibit area.
All work will be for sale and each artist will donate part of their proceeds to the 130th Birthday Celebration fund raising campaign to benefit the restoration of City Hall.
A grand opening reception will be held Friday, Oct. 28 at 5 p.m. to celebrate the opening of the Upper Floor of Historic Thompson’s Store/Ward’s Grill. Restoration of this historical building has finally been completed and space is available for lease.
The organizers invite the community to take advantage of an opportunity to support local artists, view artistic images of Saluda and tour a historical building that has not been open to the public in decades.
This exhibit is organized by the 130th Birthday Celebration committee. For more information, contact Terry Baisden at 828-749-3789.
