Art Walk
Well, we have wonderful art at 9 merchants in downtown Senatobia .... had mini-receptions in each from 3 - 5 p.m. Those of us who have attended certainly enjoyed the art, good food and the camaraderie :) Board members, Liaison Board members and even artists pitched in to accomplish this project and Wilson Harris was our 'strolling guitarist'.
The art will remain on display through the Holiday Open House this Saturday then will be picked up by the artists on Monday.
Please stop by any of the participating merchants (or all of them!) --- each has been very receptive and actually excited to host the art.
