Brush Buddies Art Exhibit

Originaly called the Fierrhouse School of Art, this group started at the Millboro Fire House in the early 1980s. Janis LaRue organized the group, with Jeannie Shepherd of Sidling Hill Farm as art instructor. For a time they met at the Sharon Fire House before moving to St Andrews Episcopal Church on McCormick Blvd in Clifton Forge, Virginia where they became the Brush Buddies. Currently the group meets every other Monday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 pmm. There is no charge and anyone interested is always welcome.

You may view the art work at the Covington Depot on Maple Avenue through February 28 every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. There is no admission charge.
