Art on the Greene

05/27/2023 to 05/28/2023

Held four times a year, Art on the Greene features a plethora of handmade arts and crafts from regional and national artisans. Numerous specialties will be represented, including metal, ceramics, glass, wood, watercolors, acrylic, and oil. Festivities, which  include multiple food vendors and entertainment, take place on the green at the historic Banner Elk School. Proceeds from the shows benefit the restoration of the school, built in 1939, as a WPA project. The school serves as a showplace for the arts in downtown Banner Elk, home to the BE Artists Gallery, Ensemble Gallery, Ensemble Stage professional theater, a community book exchange, and more. www.townofbannerelk.org
