OUR “ART AFTER DARK” story on page 1C this week is missing some information. In addition to the events listed there, this month’s Friday night, May 2, gallery stroll will include “Dancing Elephants, Curious Fairies and Elegant Unicorns” at Main Street’s It’s by Nature gallery. The exhibit is by fiber doll artist and 2001 Smoky Mountain High School graduate Zan Barnes. Zan is the daughter of Riverwood Pottery owners Brant and Karen Barnes. Also, Bubacz’s Underground Cafe will host an artists’ reception for “Fables,” a solo-show of illustrations by Shirl Sazynski-Unrath, which will run through Thursday, May 15.
LAST WEEK’S “BACK THEN” photo of the students who attended school at the old Barkers Creek Baptist Church had a misspelling of one of the names: it should have read “Beulah Beck” and not “Bruluah Beck.” Thanks to reader Annie Mae Brown for helping us correct the error.
