Ongoing

Hand-Crafted: The Art of Furniture Making now open at the Welborn Gallery of the Yadkin Cultural Arts Center located at 226 E. Main Street in downtown Yadkinville. Exhibiting artists Lyle Wheeler of Millers Creek, David Hicks and Matthew Comer of Union Grove, Fred Holland and Michael Jones of Lewisville hand craft their pieces from local hardwood without the use of machines, creating furniture of incredible beauty, originality and practicality. The exhibit showcases ladder back and post and rung chairs, rocking chairs, benches, tables, and one of a kind ‘structures’ of whimsy. The public is invited to come see what is hanging from the gallery walls and adorning the gallery’s barnwood floors! The exhibit runs from March 9 through April 28th. Info: www.yadkinarts.org.
