I can't leave out Joan at Courtyard Coffee and Soda Shop....with out her and her coffee I don't know if I could get through the 3rd Fridays...but we survived another one. Thank you to everyone who came out to support the Downtown Siler City efforts....

A new artist to Raleigh Street Gallery came on board with us last night...Mary Bryson from Pinehurst, NC....the poppy painting next to her is just one of several she brought in to display here.









Here's our own local bubble of Sunshine, Libby...hamming it up with Vance and a friend!
This is Denise...she helps me behind the desk. I don't know what I'd do without her help!

New Project in the works...Tie Chatham County Together


In the front window of Raleigh Street Gallery is an unusual site....it's an antique Barn Loon. Fiber Artist, Blaine Harkins, is setting up her loom in the window and will be making and demonstrating how to weave neck ties into floor rugs.... Siler City was once a leader in the textile industry. Lets bring it back! If you have any old out of style neck ties, please donate them to this project.

Goldston United Methodist Church Youth


Yesterday, that GUMC kids visited Raleigh Street Gallery to paint pottery before heading off to the pool.


wow...this is great for Siler City

www.northcarolinatravels.com/siler-city/index.htm This is an article Linda Person from the "Other Person Gallery" just brought to my attention. I didn't have an opportunity to meet this writer and he didn't have a chance to see my gallery, but I think it's awesome that he wrote an article about Siler City and what we have going on here. By the way....I have heard that there is a cute little eatery in Saxapahaw that serves a delicious goat burger (if your into that!).
