Art enthusiasts visit with one another while enjoying works by area artists at the Upstairs Artspace during Art Trek Tryon, held July 29-30. Participating artists opened their studios for guests to see their work and the environment in which it was created. Artists and gallery owners said many people came out for the tour despite the temperatures, which reached into the upper 90s over the weekend. Saluda artist Jim Shackelford said more than 75 people visited his Miller Mountain Studio during the tour. (photo by Wyndy Morehead)
