Description:
UPDATE: In light of these unexpected circumstances, we’ve had to make some adjustments. The Floyd Center for the Arts is still without power, so the artist demonstration and judge talk are canceled. However, we’re excited to announce that the Gala Celebration and Art Sale scheduled for this evening is still on!

A huge thank you to the Ross family for generously offering their beautiful home for this evening's event at 1756 Woods Gap Rd SE, Floyd, VA.

Please note that parking is limited, so we encourage carpooling if possible. The Floyd Center for the Arts parking lot will be available for car sharing. We look forward to seeing you all there!
