Event Description
The Art League again invites artists from Local Cloth to join our member artists to participate in our August Art Place exhibit in our new gallery space at 730Locust Street in the Historic 7th Avenue District of Downtown Hendersonville. Our members will again be exhibiting their work in all mediums along side a variety of fiber a textiles. The combination of various art forms in our previous Fiber and Textiles show was extremely well received and we'd like to do it again. The Art League's new gallery space is located in a high traffic area and is nearly three times the space we had in our previous gallery. The exhibit will combine our regular member show with fiber and textiles for the month of August.
The exhibit will run from August 1, 2025 to August 30, 2025 at The Art Place gallery, offering visitors a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of ancient traditions and contemporary artistry. An opening reception will provide an opportunity for visitors to meet the artists on Friday, August 1, 2025 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.
In addition to the work in all medium from our members, the exhibit is open to the following including derivations and combinations of materials:
