Gallery Exhibits

The Arts Council has two spacious art galleries that feature a rotating schedule of exhibitions that center around a specific theme or artistic medium. Our exhibition priorities are:

  1. To display art of the highest artistic standards as determined by the professional principals of good design.
  2. To offer a wide variety of mediums and styles, both within particular exhibition as well as over the course of the calendar year.
  3. To feature work that is unique to the area and not regularly displayed at other local venues so that we provide a distinctive cultural experience that is not available elsewhere in the County.
  4. We also proudly display works by local clubs, schools and art guilds in our Community Gallery.

Opens Thursday, June 13, 2013

The 150th Anniversary of the Civil War is being honored in Carroll County during the summer of 2013. “Images of the Civil War” will feature works by local artists. We are holding a call for artists is for those artists interested in creating a new work of art depicting some aspect of the Civil War. The Civil War conjures sentiments on both sides, the issue of slavery, artillery, battles, the role of women and children, uniforms, portraits and more. Take a drive around the county, visit a battlefield, cemetery, historical society, wherever you can find an inspiration. All media accepted. The artwork will be exhibited in the Tevis and Community Galleries. Each artist can submit one work of art. Download an application by clicking the link below.
