Here’s your chance to meet Sculpture Walk Artist, Charlie Brouwer!
Have you seen his wood sculptures around Kingsport?? Or maybe you saw the Kingsport Ladder Project?
Artist Talk begins at 10 am on Saturday, Oct. 13th entitled “Playing Outside: One artist’s journey into the world of public art.” Thank you to the Friends of the Library for allowing this to take place at the Kingsport Public Library.
