The Sampson Arts Council will have 85 pieces of art on display throughout the next couple of weeks.

Art created by students in Sampson County, Clinton City and local homeschools will be on display at the Small House through Feb. 9. This show is sponsored by Smithfield.

“You will be amazed by the talent of our young artists,” Sampson Arts Council director Kara Donatelli said. “Our art teachers do a fantastic job of bringing out the best in our students and we appreciate all their hard work. The student artwork for the show is chosen and submitted by the art teachers.”

The art gallery is open Tuesday-Friday, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., or by appointment.
