TRYON—On Friday, May 31, Tryon Arts & Crafts School welcomed over 150 guests to a vibrant triple exhibition reception. 

The event featured three distinct exhibits: “Illustration, Glancing Back,” showcasing works by the creator of the Wall Street Journal’s iconic hedcut portrait style; “Precious Things,” a site-specific art installation by Janet Orselli; and a Jewelry Sale fundraiser supporting TACS’s metalsmithing department.

The evening was a great success, drawing a large and enthusiastic crowd. Due to popular demand, Janet Orselli will offer two additional public artist talks on June 12 and June 26 from 2 to 3 p.m. Complimentary refreshments will be provided at these talks.

The exhibits “Illustration, A Glance Back,” and “Precious Things” will be on display through July 19. TACS is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m.. to 1 p.m.
