If you haven't seen the show yet, come by during ArtWalk this week on Thursday, November 8, 6-9pm. The gallery will be open for visitors. Normal gallery hours are Tues-Fri 9am-4pm.

   BCTMA (Beaufort County Traditional Music Association) has a busy month planned. See the information below, beginning with the Tar Landing Jam this weekend!
