Maryellen Burke, Executive Director says, "We've just finished our greatest summer season yet. The Shoals exhibit was a blockbuster with over 11,000 people in just the last few months. Our space is being heavily used by local groups of all kinds. We are improving all the time. The new shop looks incredible thanks to our local artists and craftspeople. If you like what we are doing, patronize us by doing your shopping locally."
