For two weeks in the spring and two weeks in the fall, the Burwell-Morgan Mill turns into a two-level art gallery where visitors can purchase works from almost 300 local and regional artists. Sales from the show help support the operations of CCHA and help keep the water wheel turning at the Mill.

CCHA depends on support from people like you to help us fulfill our mission: to preserve the historical resources and records of Clarke County and to foster their use, understanding, and enjoyment through stewardship and education.
