Owner, Sheila Bosworth, is looking forward to the gallery opening. "Cathy is not only talented at what she does, but she truly loves being an artist. We are excited to have the opportunity to feature her work". Peaceful River Trading Co. offers a place for local artists and crafters to display and sell their creations.
