CLASSES & EVENTS
The Rutherford County Visual Artist Guild hosts several events throughout the year and offers classes for both adults and kids to assist developing their skills and exploring new mediums.
You do not have to be a member of the Guild to take a class or participate in an event. We are a county wide Guild and are open to everyone in the community.
All classes and workshops are held at The VAC, 160 N. Main Street, Rutherfordton, North Carolina. Often class size is limited and no registrations are held until the class fee has been paid. You can pay in person or mail a check to The VAC at PO Box 2015, Rutherfordton, NC 28139.
If you are interested in taking a particular class and don't see it listed, email us and let us know. We can reach out to our artists and try to offer it.
