This Saturday!

Arts❤️NRV Market offers artists an opportunity to create, exhibit, and sell their artwork to you, the New River Valley Community.

Plein air artists will spend three days exploring and painting historical sites in Montgomery County. The Market will feature the paintings created by en plein air artists, as well as artisan vendor sales.

Artisan vendors will be selling their work, including pottery, jewelry, photography, paintings and more. Watch demonstrations by artists from Fire and Sky Studio in Radford and the Backyard Stone Carvers to learn about these artistic practices.

Join us for the Arts❤️NRV Market on Saturday, May 30th from 12 - 8pm, at Eastern Divide Brewing Company located at 3175 Commerce St, Blacksburg, VA.

Hahn Horticulture Garden Planning Committee
Invitation to Contribute to the Gala Auction

Dear Artist,

By now you might be aware of the upcoming Hahn Garden Gala on Saturday 6/13/26 and the previous notification that we are accepting art donations. The Gala is fast approaching, and we are still looking for 20 more art pieces to add to our silent auction! Our sincere thanks to the many artists that have already committed.

I know there are more of you out there that would like to donate something. Every artist I know has something squirreled away and needs to see the light of day to bring joy to those that delight in the arts.

We again invite you to help us bring this joy to others by donating those pieces that need to be seen! Your thoughtful donation will make a meaningful impact and help us celebrate the unique connection between art and nature in support of the future of Hahn Garden. All proceeds from the auction directly fund horticulture initiatives in the Hahn Garden, ranging from educational workshops to the creation of vibrant new garden spaces.

We look forward to seeing those special artistic works!

With gratitude,
The Hahn Horticulture Garden Planning Committee
