Community Information - Arts & Culture

Arts & Culture

    Union County is home to writers, artists, musicians, and photographers. Artists of all types find creative inspiration from our beautiful mountain scenery and four distinct seasons. Arts enthusiasts will find Union County is an area that revels in, fosters and celebrates its cultural heritage and creative community. Many of our artists and crafts-people show and sell their creations in Blairsville studios and galleries or at the many festivals we have, such as the annual Sorghum Festival.
    Whether you visit a gallery exhibition at the Young Harris College Student Art Gallery, attend a fundraiser for the local library, take a dance class at the John C. Campbell Folk School, see a riveting drama on the Young Harris College stage, or catch one of the many free concerts around Blairsville, you will find a sense of relaxed refinement among our cultural community.
