Hidden in plain sight

We Need Your Creativity

Attention Artists of Appalachia: 


Your creativity can help tell a real local story! The Hickory Nut Gorge green salamander lives ONLY here. And after Hurricane Helene’s unprecedented impacts, its survival has become a symbol of resilience and recovery for the Gorge.

We welcome artists of all disciplines, mediums, backgrounds, and experience levels to design salamander artwork for Hidden in Plain Sight, our new art quest across Lake Lure & Chimney Rock this year!

All mediums welcome, apply by February 10th by emailing info@hickorynutchamber.org

Bring the spirit of conservation and community to life here in the Hickory Nut Gorge in Western North Carolina (WNC).
