FOLK ART GALLERY
The Folk Art Alliance relocated its Folk Art Gallery on the 1st floor of the Walk In Art Center and is now the first thing people encounter when entering the building.  Filled with displays of local folk artists' work and information panels about the artists themselves and the history of their art form, it's a fun and engaging space for folks to learn about the tradition bearers that are carrying your heritage forward!
