I had been seeing advertisements for the annual art fair. However, when I went to look around, I found out that you had to pay $7 to gain access. I thought that this was outrageous because nowhere on their ads was it mentioned that you had to pay to enter.

A bit small and the floors are creaky, but it's a nice free place to walk around and view some local art.

Attended a juried national exhibition opening. Artworks were well presented. The vibe of the event was upbeat. The show organizers were friendly and accommodating.

This appeared to be a reclaimed school gym now used for Civic functions. Excellent pottery show was being held. Nice use of older building.
