The Carter Building in Glenwood South has had a long relationship with the community, dating back to the 1930s when it was a curtain factory hiring local workers. Since the ‘40s, it has welcomed an array of artists into its three level, rambling floor plan that readily accommodates both large and small studios. This December, the artists of TCB wish to celebrate the Season of Giving by once again highlighting community. At December’s First Friday, they will link with their neighbor in Glenwood South, St. Saviors Center to support a variety of services, reaching families in the neighborhood and Wake County community.
You have probably passed by the beautiful stone church on Tucker St., known to locals as St. Saviors, without knowing all that goes on behind the front door. From its outreach to the elderly (Healthy Living, Meals on Wheels) to its service to infants (The Diaper Train), and even its Community Music School for youth, it provides a nurturing, safe place to people of all ages.
Please join the artists of TCB on December 2 for a special holiday tribute to community. Bring canned goods or diapers to win raffle tickets for art. Sip a glass of mulled wine/cider listen to the St. Saviors’ choir, and learn more about the programs available through St. Saviors Center. Participating artists will also donate a percentage of sales to support this critical ministry to Wake County families.
Come for the art. Come for the music. And most of all, come because this is a perfect time to express community. Happy holidays to all!
