The Cow and the Calf Art Gallery Signs Lease at Peach Shops

SugarOak recently announced that a lease was signed with The Cow and the Calf Art Gallery at the Peach Shops in Byron, GA. The Cow and the Calf Art Gallery leased 3,440 square feet. They are part of the One and One Half Arts Council striving to encourage and promote art projects in Peach County and surrounding areas. The need for an arts council in the community became evident after many years and events where local artists have been featured. In addition to the Council they've also seen a need for an area where these local artists can display and sell their works as well as share their passion for their art form by holding classes and workshops. The council will be opening The Cow and the Calf Art Gallery very soon in the Peach Outlet Shops located right off I-75 in Byron, Georgia.

They hope to be able to offer classes in all art forms ~ painting, pottery, photography, performance arts and more! If you are an artist and interested in displaying and selling your work please send them an email with a couple pictures of your art. Although the space will hold many artists, they will be limited in what they can accept. They plan to offer a variety of art forms and therefore all artists wanting to be considered will have their pictures go through a committee for gallery acceptance.

The Peach Outlet Shops are owned and managed by SugarOak Management Services.
