The 2008 Holiday Lofts + Artists Tour has ended and, as we look forward to a new year, we’d like to thank you, our guests, for participating in our tour.  Judging from your comments and attendance (estimated at over 1000 in this, our second year), we believe you had as good a time as we did in bringing it to you.   We’d also like to thank our 18 artists from both The Stacks and the local community for giving us such a varied and interesting array of art. It is amazing and awe-inspiring to find so much talent right in our midst. Thanks to our loft owners who opened their homes and their hearts. And to our many volunteers who made this all possible.  This is a remarkable place with remarkable people – and we got a chance to share it with our neighbors, our friends, and our community.  Check out the fantastic slide show of the tour that was compiled by Stacks resident Terrell Clark. We have no doubt this is that start of a great and growing tradition.  We look forward to seeing you all again at our 2009 tour.  If you have any suggestions or comments about this year’s or future years’ tours, please send them to me at lynpeachtree@hotmail.com.  And in the meantime, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year from all of us at The Stacks at Fulton Cotton Mill.
