Find art where mountains meet the foothills

An hour east of Asheville, Rutherford is a quiet little town on the edge of the Appalachia’s wide expanse, where the mountains meet the foothills.  

The Visual Arts Center serves as the storefront for the Rutherford County Visual Arts Guild, a non-profit made up of artists, crafters and volunteers with a passion for growing the art community. The Guild’s main mission is to increase the visibility of art in the community and provide opportunities for artists. The Visual Arts Center serves as both a retail outlet for artists to display their art for sale, as well as a resource for art in the local community. They offer numerous classes and workshops throughout the year, including paint and pour, stained glass and open studio time for personal projects and professional guidance.
