The Museum Center at 5ive Points will host the Fall Art Fest on Saturday from 10:30 a.m.-6 p.m.
A variety of local artists will have booths offering their work. Several artists will present demos throughout the day, including pottery demonstrations by Michael Lalone, resident potter at John C. Campbell Folk School. The museum’s Executive Director, Hassan Najjar – a wood-worker himself, will be turning on his lathe.
“This is a great opportunity to get a jump on your Christmas shopping as well as interact with the artists themselves,” says Museum Store Manager Hulon Dunn. “Additionally, all guests to Art Fest will enjoy free admission to the Museum’s exhibits.”
Children and families can get involved with the activity stations designing wood sculptures or making rag dolls.
There will be music from local musicians Argene Pearson, Stormy and Adrian Fisher, the RP Wells Band and others. BBQ will be available from Kenny’s Smokehouse BBQ.
