The 35th Anniversary Season of the Highlands-Cashiers Chamber Music Festival opened this past June. The excitement continues with many more concerts and events including this year’s Musical Chairs.
Eight local and regional artists have donated their time and immense talent to create one of a kind chairs for the event. The chairs are donated and artists decorate them as they see fit. These works of art are then auctioned off at various functions through the HCCMF season.
Participating artists include Richard Bordeaux, Those Kooky Chickens (TKC), Colette Clark, Barbara Grossman, Sally Johannessen, Susan Robert, Rosemary Stiefel, and Ann Strub. You’ve no doubt seen samples of the artists’ work so you can imagine the vision and talent that went into creating these stunning chairs. Chairs have been donated by Lynne Browne, CK Swan, Dovetail Antiques, and Vivian Metzger Antiques.
If you were lucky enough to attend “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Abridged and Revised” on Sunday, June 19, then you got a preview of these eight eclectic pieces. Want another look or haven’t seen them yet? They’ll be on display during July, just call HCCMF for details.
