West Lincoln Middle School in Lincolnton, NC, Calls for Potters for Tradition Turners Pottery Festival

June 16, 2010December 3, 2014 by admin

This press release came to us at Carolina Arts in the middle of the Spoleto/Piccolo Festival scramble and I put it in a place where I could deal with it later. My mistake. I just found it and I already cost early applicants a discount on their fee. My bad. Especially when I’m trying to ... Read More

June 14, 2010December 3, 2014 by admin

I received this press release at Carolina Arts. I think public libraries are one of the great resources we have in this country and will be willing to pay higher taxes any day – as long as that extra money goes to support our libraries. Go buy some books. Cheap books abound at the upcoming ... Read More

I’ve stated this a few times before in this blog – as deadlines go by, something interesting always comes in too late to do anything about. We received a press release about this exhibit – which will be included in our expanded online version of the June 2010 issue of Carolina Arts, and perhaps in ... Read More

May 30, 2010December 3, 2014 by admin

Right off the bat we have a few corrections to my preview of the Piccolo Spoleto visual art offerings taking place in Charleston, SC. It seems for some reason on the second day of the festivals two of the rest rooms at the Charleston Visitor Center were under “construction” – whatever that means beyond a ... Read More

May 28, 2010December 3, 2014 by admin

I posted my entry about the 2nd Annual Cousins in Clay event this morning and when I went to go get the mail a postcard about this event was there. I’m sure the folks at Cousins in Clay won’t mind this posting piggybacking it. You’re gonna be there anyway. The kiln opening and sale will ... Read More

Talk about your best kept secrets or events that don’t get much publicity in the shadow of the Spoleto and Piccolo Spoleto Festivals – this event takes the cake. I picked up a flyer at one of the local library branches – otherwise we haven’t been sent a lick of info about this event at ... Read More

Sunset River Marketplace To Sponsor Free Summer Concert Series in Ocean Isle Beach, NC

May 26, 2010December 3, 2014 by admin

This is about a performing arts event, but it is also another example of how the visual art community does a lot to help with the overall cultural community in the Carolinas. Commercial art galleries are often accused of just being interested in making profits – a trick these days at best, but they don’t ... Read More
