Art walk coming in September

The fifth annual Ocracoke Art Walk is scheduled for Saturday September 27th from 10 AM to 5 PM. This is a great opportunity to meet local artists in their own studios, see them at work, and purchase something lovely to take home if you so desire. You will have plenty of to choose from, too, as Ocracoke is blessed with a large artistic community with skills as varied as jewelry making, quilting, painting, carving, and pottery. The weather on Ocracoke in the fall is usually fantastic, too, so this is a great time to visit. (In case of inclement weather, there will be a shuttle bus driving around the village stopping at the artist's locations, so that's an option if it rains...or if you just prefer to ride rather than walk or bike.) I have enjoyed Art Walk for the last several years, and definitely recommend it. Have fun!
