Highland Restoration Association Seeks Highland Artists

From the Highland Restoration Association:

The Highland Restoration Association is assisting the Highland Cultural District to compile a list of artists and artisans who live within the following boundaries: Southern Avenue to Youree Drive, Kings Highway to Snow Street and its “intersection” with Market Street downtown. The definition of art includes but is not limited to: drawing, painting, sculpture, clay, ceramics, fiber, glass, leather, metal, paper, wood or mixed media; and limited numbered editions (up to 100) of lithographs, photography, etchings, graphics designs video production, wearable art, light sculpture.

Please send name, address and media to highland_restoration@hotmail.com. This information is to complete the process for approval of a cultural district that would create a Sales Tax Free Zone within the district for eligible art sales and make available state tax credits for building preservation. Address would be used to confirm that you live or have a studio within the boundaries of the cultural district and may not be necessary if you object to giving that information. Please get the word out and help us identify all folks for this register.

Thanks,
TERESA EDGERTON, HRA President
