ARTS AND CULTURE SEEN THE ART COMMUNITY AROUND MARTIN COUNTY

Clyde Butcher & Gary Gresko opening reception brought together two artists from very different points of view. The Clyde Butcher exhibition was housed inside the Court House Cultural Center while the Gary Gresko contemporary sculptures now ring the Gazebo next door to the Center. The Gresko sculptures were purchased in 2020 by the County’s Art in Public Places Program.

ArtsFest 2021’s VIP Party took place at the Court House Cultural Center giving sponsors a chance to catch the Clyde Butcher exhibition! The VIP reception was sponsored by Life Beautifier and Delightful Kitchen. And in the days leading up to ArtsFest board members and friends visited the CHOPPED restaurants to taste the creations our chefs made for the competition.
