Yancey County Arts in Education Showcase
February 6 – March 6
Kindergarten through 12th grade students from public and private schools in Yancey County participate annually in this event that celebrates the creative achievements of our students. This showcase is not just a celebration of students, but also a testament to the hard work each art educator dedicates to the job of nurturing creativity and artistic growth.
In lieu of a reception, Toe River Arts will host free workshops every Saturday during the exhibition for children aged three and older living in Mitchell and Yancey counties. Participants will learn to work with fused glass, construct bird houses made of clay, and will be introduced to paste paper and printmaking. Classes are limited to eight students to allow for proper social distancing. While the workshops are free, participants must be registered ahead of time. Register online at www.toeriverarts.org/artists/education-outreach/workshops. For more information, please contact Community Outreach Coordinator Melanie Finlayson, at melanie@toeriverarts.org or 828.765.0524.
The Burnsville gallery is open 10:30AM to 5PM, Thursday through Saturday.
