NEW SIGN @ ART 105!

Despite a healthy fear of heights, owner of Art 105 Brandon Potter, was able to hang some new graphics on our big sign on Blount Street today. Special thanks to assistance from Bishop and Riley Hughes! Make sure to look up when you come down for our open house on Thursday, May 21st (tomorrow evening) from 5-7PM!

Here are all of the submissions for our inaugural "Paint the Town" event! This turned out to be such a success and exactly what we envisioned...a painting exhibition that celebrated our hometown! Thank you to everyone who participated and thank you to Community Council for the Arts-Kinston, NC and Smart Kinston Foundation for teaming up with us for this event. Look for more collaborations as we continue to work together to raise up the arts in Kinston!
