About Clayton Visual Arts

Clayton Visual Arts is the main visual arts programming body in Clayton, North Carolina.  A non-profit organization of volunteers, the group coordinates a monthly rotating art exhibit in The Clayton Center gallery, the annual Millstock Music and Art Fair, artist’s workshops, an annual exhibition featuring Clayton High School students and  a yearly juried art poster contest.

The group was founded in early 1999 by Margaret Ritchie, Carolyn Howard, Ramona Cash, Kathy Ragland, and Ron Hasson. The first event was the Art Fair which later became Millstock Music Art Fair featuring artists exhibiting their works and performances by local music groups.

 Clayton Visual Arts is a nonprofit organization of volunteers funded in part by the Town of Clayton Cultural Arts Fund, private donations and works in cooperation with the Johnston County Arts Council.
