The Blowing Rock community embraces art with sculptures, murals, and works that are accessible to the public. Most are outdoors, some are indoors- take a tour!

Blowing Rock has a history of attracting creative people who draw inspiration from the natural splendor of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Today, there are several galleries in town that showcase local creative works, and many of our shops specialize in handcrafted items.
