Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

The Tryon Downtown Development Association (TDDA) is hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony for both the Mirrorball Gallery and Valhalla Cakes & Café on Friday, June 28th at 5pm. The ceremony will be a great opportunity to celebrate these local businesses and enjoy their offerings. 

Mirrorball Gallery was founded in Tryon by owners Alexander Page and E. Vincent Martinez who share a passion for contemporary and modern art. Originally from Atlanta, they are art collectors, philanthropists, and long-time supporters of the arts community. Mirrorball Gallery is carefully curated to tell engaging stories and immerse visitors through thought-provoking artworks. In addition to exhibitions, Mirrorball offers a range of events and programs, including artist talks, panel discussions, workshops, performances, and educational initiatives. Mirrorball Gallery is now open at 84 Pacolet Street and can also be experienced at mirrorballgallery.com

Valhalla Cakes, founded in 2015 in Denver, CO, by owner Sam, specializes in creating custom cakes for all occasions. Recently, Sam relocated to Tryon, North Carolina, bringing her baking artistry to the area. Valhalla Cakes & Café, now open at 90 Pacolet Street, offers a beautifully appointed space where you can enjoy delicious treats.
