The Arts Council of Henderson County will be presenting a series of exhibitions as a thematic unit entitled Mentors & Students, at First Citizens Bank, 539 N. Main Street, in downtown Hendersonville.

Secondary students will be featured in the third show of the series, Artists of Tomorrow, opening Friday, March 27, and closing on Friday, April 10. The opening will include the announcement of awards, which will include a Best of Show Award of $150, sponsored and presented by the Art League of Henderson County. Musical and/or theatrical performances by Henderson County students are planned for each of the opening receptions.
