Art Ventures is thrilled to invite you to our annual “Holiday Hues” exhibition, where we display a large variety of affordable artworks from our represented artists. This exhibition is a long-standing Art Ventures tradition that celebrates the beauty, meaning, and joy local artists bring to our daily lives and communal spaces.
"Holiday Hues" invites our community to explore the extraordinary talent in visual arts within our region. As the holiday season unfolds, Art Ventures dedicates itself to creating a space where shopping becomes an intentional and meaningful experience. By choosing to gift the creations of local artists, you not only support their creative journey but also contribute to the enrichment of our community.
Whether you're seeking a cherished addition to your personal collection or a distinctive holiday present for a loved one, this collection caters to your aesthetic desires.
As always, our First Thursday events are free and open to the public! Beverages and refreshments will be provided by Art Ventures. Parking is minimal at the gallery due to construction. Our complimentary shuttle picks up at the corner of Church St. and Center St. every 15 minutes. Guests can park at the Fayetteville Downtown Square and ride the shuttle to and from the gallery during the hours of the event from 5-8pm.
