Welcome to Modern Local ARTSOUP! We’re a nonprofit dedicated to supporting our community and local artists by bringing them together.
ARTSOUP is the culmination of founder Beth Boone’s longtime dream to open a community art center to showcase the unique talents of Western North Carolina artists.
As of Wednesday, November 5, at noon Eastern Time, our first nonprofit local arts auction will be LIVE. Click here to start bidding!
(You’ll leave ARTSOUP and go to our secure auction site at Auctria.com.)
Meanwhile, locals’ favorite The Ada Khoury Band is coming to party down at ARTSOUP on First Friday, November 7, 5-8PM!
We’re thrilled to host them again! Come find out why they’re so popular hereabouts and bring your dancing shoes!
