✨ We’re beginning to gear up for the October Art on the River Gallery Show… and we are so excited for what’s ahead. 🎨🍂

Our main gallery experience will continue to be a curated, upscale exhibition centered around our featured artists and the atmosphere people experienced in May at the Elba Theatre. That heart of the show is not changing. 🖼️✨

We’re also exploring a few additional creative elements around the main event to make the overall experience even more engaging and community-centered.

Ideas we’re considering:
🎴 Artist trading cards
🖨️ Print tables
🎁 Small affordable art pieces
🛍️ Select artist tables and interactive elements

We will also once again host the Brooke Chapman Memorial Kids’ Art Gallery at the Elba Public Library, similar to what we did during the festival, while featuring a few additional young artists within the main gallery exhibition as well. ❤️

The gallery itself will remain the centerpiece, with a strong focus on original artwork and highlighting our artists both in person and online.

We’d love feedback from artists, collectors, and the community:
👇 What kinds of additions would make the experience even better for you?
👇 What would you love to see connected to the October gallery season?

October is already feeling inspiring. 🍂✨

Congratulations to all our gallery kids and to our metal winners!

Tonight’s Art on the River preview evening was truly something special. The gallery was full of life, meaningful conversations, and a shared appreciation for the incredible artists and their work. It was such a beautiful way to kick things off, and we are so grateful to everyone who came out to support and celebrate with us.

Now we get to do it all again tomorrow.

Join us for the festival starting at 10 AM at Rockin' the River Music and Arts Festival. It’s going to be a wonderful day filled with art, community, and so much to experience.

We can’t wait to see you there.

We spent today bringing something really special to life inside the gallery 🎨The Brooke Chapman Memorial Kids’ Art Gallery is officially set up, judging has been completed, and certificates and awards are ready for pickup at the Elba Public Library. This year, over 70 pieces of artwork fill the space, each one created by a young artist in our community. The creativity, imagination, and heart in this gallery is something you truly have to see in person. On May 2, we invite you to step into the gallery, take your time with each piece, and be part of the experience. Festival-goers will have the chance to vote for the Community Favorite, so come out to the library and support these incredible young artists by casting your vote.This is what Art on the River is all about. Community, creativity, and making space for the next generation 💛

The gallery is up at Rockin' the River Music and Arts Festival, and it’s honestly something you need to see in person.

We spent the day bringing Art on the River to life inside the Elba Theatre, and it’s more than just a collection of pieces… it’s a full experience. Every piece holds something different, every corner invites you to slow down and take it in.

From bold, expressive works to quiet, detailed pieces, the range this year is incredible. You can feel the heart of each artist in the room.

Here is a glimpse of the space, but photos and video don’t quite capture what it feels like to stand in it.

Doors open May 2 from 10:00 to 2:00. Come walk through it, meet the artists, and find the piece that speaks to you.

This is one of those things you don’t want to miss.
