We are so excited to partner with Trillium Project for this show!

Artist Call: Haunted Holler!

Do you have artwork inspired by Appalachian folklore, cryptids, ghosts, haunted places, or the strange and unexplained?

Maybe it's about family history, memory, transformation, or something that simply feels a little unsettling.

We're accepting submissions for Haunted Holler, a juried exhibition opening during our October First Saturday Art Market at West Edge Factory.

Submit up to three works at no cost. New and existing works are welcome, and the theme is intentionally broad.

Deadline: September 18

Thank you to everyone who joined us at West Edge Factory for First Saturday this weekend!

What an incredible day of art, music, food, and creativity. We loved seeing so many people shopping with local artists, enjoying lunch from food trucks, listening to live music, and making art together. It was especially exciting to see so many kids and families try printmaking!

A huge thank you to our artists, performers, vendors, volunteers, and everyone who came out to support local creativity. Every person who shows up helps make these community gatherings possible, and we're already looking forward to the next one.

📅 Join us for the next First Saturday on September 5!
