“We believe in supporting our community artisans and also feel that everyone should be able to afford an original piece of art. We also enjoy giving back to the wonderful community that so graciously supports us,” stated owner Kristen Feighery.

The grand opening will include a silent auction as a benefit for Davidson-Cornelius Day Care. Sanctuary of Davidson artists have donated several pieces of original art for the auction. The auction also includes three pieces created by the children from the day care center. Community Arts Project of Cornelius is working with the children to create an original piece of artwork from each class. The evening will also offer live music by Reeve Coobs and Matt Glass.

“I chose Davidson as the location for the gallery because of how supportive and community oriented the town is, which is evident by how people are rallying around the Davidson-Cornelius Day Care. True community supports its families and children or it ceases to survive,” Ms. Feighery said in a press release

Sanctuary of Davidson gallery hours are Monday through Friday 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
