IN THE GALLERY
The Cheri Blackerby Gallery is open for every Arts Alive. The gallery is also open from 10 am - 2 pm, Monday through Friday. We also participate in several other art related events during the year. We always need volunteers to help us in the gallery to welcome visitors, provide information, set up for the events, staff the refreshments area and many other duties. Requirements are minimal, an enthusiastic attitude being the most important.
