2024 Artist Hang-Up 

The Randolph Arts Guild and the Sara Smith Self Gallery are pleased to announce the December 2024 Artist Hang-Up exhibit, to be displayed in the Sara Smith Self Gallery at the Randolph Arts Guild. This exhibit will feature a collection of artworks created by local artists in Randolph County and its surrounding areas.  Our goal is to encourage creativity at every level as well as promote the sale of artist’s original works. The “Artist Hang-Up” exhibit offers artists of all levels of experience an opportunity to display their original artwork.

The “Artist Hang-Up” serves to inspire and develop confidence in new artists, by displaying their unique artistic talents to be appreciated and shared with others. This exhibit is an opportunity to recognize not only new artists but those who are experienced, and are continuing to experiment with or perfect their art. 

The Randolph Arts Guild will host an opening reception on Tuesday, December 3rd at 5:30pm.

 

Asheboro Fall Festival 2024

The Fall Festival will be held Saturday, October 5, 2024 from 9am-6pm located in Downtown Asheboro NC. 

 

The Fall Festival will continue to be a fun filled event with creative and unique craft vendors, talented musical guests, crave worthy foods and much, MORE! Plans are on course for a safe and successful event. We will remain in compliance with the recommendations of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services for guidance in all safety measures from the State and Local Officials. The Fall Festival is a rain or shine event. 

 The inaugural Fall Festival was held in 1972, included just over 30 vendors, and was located solely on Sunset Avenue in Downtown Asheboro. The Randolph Arts Guild has continued to build upon this celebration and is pleased to announce that our 49th Annual Fall Festival will encompass over 150-200 vendors spanning the historic streets of Downtown Asheboro.  Vendors will showcase their handcrafted goods, delicious food, local businesses, and non-profit information. Our festival attracts many visitors annually, consistently engaging a multitude of artists, artisans, and businesses from within and around Randolph County. Some of the artistic genres represented include music, dance, craft, and live art demonstrations – just to name a few! 

 The Randolph Arts Guild is 501(c)3 non-profit organization, all of the proceeds from the Fall Festival registration go towards sustaining the Guild in carrying out our mission. 

 The mission of the Randolph Arts Guild is to develop, coordinate, and promote activities for the citizens of Randolph County to educate, foster appreciation, and provide for self-expression of the arts. The Guild strives to inform the public about the arts, support artists in their endeavors, teach adults and children the techniques needed to improve or enhance their skills in their chosen discipline(s) and to organize community events that educate, illuminate, and bring joy to people in all walks of life. We have made engagement and outreach our focus as we endeavored to promote the arts to more residents of our county while strengthening our established partnerships and developing new relationships with organizations and agencies.
