Holiday Time in Hillsborough




It's holiday time in Hillsborough!  Tonight's festivities include lighting the town Christmas tree, luminaries along Churton Street, and of course our gallery reception celebrating "The Art of Giving" from 6-9 pm. Saturday morning welcomes the annual Christmas parade, and Sunday evening is the candlelight tour of the historic homes near downtown.

The holiday exhibit at Hillsborough Gallery of Arts features works by our 22 members: blown-glass, paintings, turned wood, photography, jewelry, fiber arts, glass mosaic, ceramic bowls and platters, metal sculpture, and more.  In addition to our regular offerings we have seasonal work on display until early January.  Come into the gallery to see strands of brightly colored ornaments suspended on white branches, holiday cards and books, and many gift-sized items perfect for family and friends.
