All County Arts!


Artists... Bernie Rosage Jr., Stephen Greer, Mitchell Morton and Janet Nickle had the honor of working with over 40 of the best high school artists in Onslow County. We gave a "painting from life" workshop in four different 1 hour 45 minute "break out" sessions. The event is called "All County Arts" and brings together the best artists from each high school in the county for a weekend of collaboration and workshops to celebrate these young artists and promote the arts in our community. The event is headed up by Janae Copeland, Education Coordinator for Arts in the Onslow County Schools, and all the Onslow County high school art teachers. They did a GREAT job in organizing this event which is in its fourth year.

Hi Bernie,
Sorry it has taken me so long to get you some directions, but here is a map that I had made and photographed for you. I think they can read it: our address is 186 Oyster Lane, Hubert, NC if they have a GPS it will get them to the right street. Be sure to come on down the street to the For Sale sign in front of 2 white brick columns and the Oyster Point sign in our front yard.
Looking forward to everyone coming!
