Tapestry of Talent
The theme of this year’s Ashley for the Arts Festival is Tapestry of Talent, an afternoon of experiencing and participating in the arts.  Through the generosity of Ashley Furniture and the Ashley for the Arts initiative, arts educators throughout Davie County have been able to participate in grants for equipment, instructional supplies, instruments and instrument repairs and technology for the arts classrooms.

Please join us in saying “Thank You!” to Ashley Furniture for their generous support of The Arts in Davie County Schools.  Join us on Saturday, May 9 from 1-5 PM at Davie County High School and enjoy the superb talent of our student artists.
