On Friday and Saturday, March 25–26, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., stop by Grovewood Gallery for their annual spring Sip & Shop. There will be artist demonstrations, complimentary wine, and ten percent off everything in the gallery.
From noon to 4 p.m. on Friday, Grovewood studio artist Helen Purdum will show you how she creates imaginative surface designs on her bisque-fired bowls and cups. Be sure to heck out the colorful caricatures in her “Girlfriends” series.
And then from noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday, art instructor Krista Skrede will demonstrate the intricate art of paper cutting as she fashions delicate—and often dramatic—two- and three-dimensional compositions.
Andy Hale, sommelier from Metro Wines in Asheville, will also be on hand to answer questions from 3–5 p.m. on Saturday.
