Asheville 2009 Official Visitor Guide - (Page 50) where to shop wearable art All art doesn’t necessarily begin with a blank canvas or a ball of clay. Sometimes it starts with a piece of fabric and an artist’s vision, blossoming into a beautiful piece of art – wearable art, that is. “Art to wear really fits into Asheville because it’s such a creative city with a lot of energy,” explains Matt Chambers, gallery director of Bellagio Art To Wear in Historic Biltmore Village and Bellagio Everyday downtown. The shops represent more than 500 talented artists, each with an individual identity. Cutting-edge designs that are literally fit to the individual are a specialty of Ship to Shore, where no two pieces of clothing are exactly the same. Likewise, Blue and Jewels That Dance each offer one-of-a-kind jewelry designs by talented goldsmiths. “ 50 Asheville’s shops are ‘stellar’ and ‘effortlessly chic.’ LUCKY MAGAZINE (2006) ” http://www.exploreasheville.com/what-to-do/shopping/index.aspx http://www.exploreasheville.com/what-to-do/activity-details/index.aspx?guid=68e37d6f-dd50-4bbf-87b2-c277a93a847b
