ASHEBORO — It’s time to put away the snowmen and bring out the hearts. The Randolph Arts Guild is feeling all warm and fuzzy inside with Valentine-themed art programs and events.
The arts guild is offering arts, crafts and music for all ages, not to mention the brand new handmade artwork from local artists now in the gift shop. The windows and shelving are adorned with unique one-of-a-kind items just for a sweetheart.
