Woolworth Walk

Events

In addition to the Downtown Asheville Art District Walks that occur on the First Fridays, Woolworth Walk also has our own art events regularly.

On the First Friday of every month, there is an Opening Reception for the Featured Artist in the F.W. Gallery. Woolworth Walk also has extended hours during the summer, fall and holiday seasons, a Seconds Sale in February and occasionally hosts a private party.

Woolworth Walk is pleased to announce the following Featured Artist Shows:

June 1–29, 2023Stephanie Peterson Jones

For the month of June, local artist Stephanie Peterson Jones will be featured in the FW Gallery at Woolworth Walk.

Stephanie Peterson Jones creates illustrations for children’s books, adult coloring books, textiles, stationery, and gift products. She is known for her bright and cheerful illustrations, graphic surface patterns, intricate ink drawings, unique floor mandalas, and beautiful handwriting. Stephanie’s books include the award-winning book Peek-a-Moo, in print since 1998. She also wrote and illustrated Drawing for Joy, a book of 365 daily prompts to develop drawing skills and meditative practice, and “You’re Retired, Now What?”, a book of 52 lists for the newly retired, published by Peter Pauper Press.

During covid lockdown, Stephanie was commissioned to create illustrations for Ceaco Puzzles, and has since created 16 puzzles with three more currently in the works. Stephanie is also a potter, and she and her husband, Paul, who is a woodturner sell their work in Asheville and an occasional craft fair. She maintains her own daily drawing practice and feels a little bit off if she misses a day. She is inspired by the beauty in nature, kind people, and the little visual surprises she encounters each day. Much of her artwork evolves from her “daily meditations”, which are spontaneous paintings on postcard sized watercolor paper, done without a drawing or a plan. When she’s not making art, she’s taking a hike, knitting, making pottery, and teaching (or doing) Pilates.
