Tryon Arts and Crafts School is currently showing an exhibit entitled “Inspirations” which features regional artists and artisans who are members of the Southern Highlands Craft Guild.
Each of these artists was selected for this show for their exceptional work in their field, as well as a level of creativity in the use of their medium that tends to be inspirational to other artists.
The artists showing in this exhibit are: Kelemen Kuatro (fused glass), Judi Harwood (ceramics), Alan Daigre (wood/furniture), John Geci (blown glass), Christine Kosiba (clay sculpture), Tom Turnbull (clay/wallhangings), Matt Kelleher (clay sculpture), and fiber artists Neal Howard, Elizabeth Spear and Leslie Owens.
As an officially recognized Southern Highlands Craft Guild Education Center, Tryon Arts and Crafts School maintains a highly qualified staff of instructors in a wide range of media, as well as seeks to bring in additional regional talent from time to time to add to the creative mix.
Several of the artists showing in this exhibit will also be speaking at a special educational event and reception this coming Saturday, Sept. 27, from 6-9 p.m.
This exhibit will be in place through Oct. 14. There is no charge for attending the special educational event on Sept. 27, but donations toward the ongoing educational programs at Tryon Arts and Crafts School are always appreciated.
