Back by popular demand! Last year’s Blooms and Brushes; Art in the Gardens Tour in Ennis was a huge success. Organized by the Ennis Arts Association, this year’s tour will take place on Saturday, August 16 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. The tour includes five gardens with an artist working on their craft and a PieceMakers of the Madison quilt at each garden.
The gardens will be staffed with garden experts for garden related questions as well as the makers themselves. Also on the tour this year is the Historic Trinity Episcopal Church in Jeffers with its 100+ year-old stained-glass windows, where docents will explain the windows (a handout description will be available) and the pews will have twenty four antique quilts displayed.
Proceeds from this Ennis Arts Association event will benefit the community in many ways; 3 annual college scholarships, events at The Manor nursing home, Shakespeare in the Schools performances, Madison Valley Public Library, Ennis School Science Fair Awards, and Madison Farm to Fork: Good Thyme Summer Camp.
Tickets are available online for $10. Between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m., in front of the Ennis Library, attendees can pick up brochures at the Madison Valley Public Library, 210 E Main Street, Ennis. The brochure will reveal the Gardens’ locations, artist names, and the map for the tour. In the meantime, whet your appetite for art by joining the event discussion page with sneak previews on Facebook.
