Our Business Spotlight is the Buchanan Art Gallery, a magical local gem rich with local history and beautiful art! It was originally called the Buchanan Arts & Crafts and is the oldest, continuous cooperative gallery in the United States! Today, it is an artisan gallery, displaying beautiful works from local artists, many of who teach workshops and classes there at the Gallery's location off TX-29 in Buchanan Dam! The Gallery sponsors demos, workshops and free art lessons to further the interest and participation in arts in the community. Open Fridays through Mondays, this treasure provides a place for members to create, exhibit and sell their art and the public - locals and visitors - to come in and learn and experience a variety of art practices in safe space!

For more information, check out the Buchanan Art Gallery website, register for a class or workshop and/or stop in for a visit and to shop: https://www.buchananartgallery.org

And be sure to register for next Sunday's Bridge to Healing workshop. It is free to all, no art experience is required, and registration is requested on their website.
