Gari Melchers Home and Studio at Belmont will host its third Art After Hours event on Thursday, Sept. 22.
Featuring a live music performance from The Brokedown Boys on the lawn, the program will include local beer and wine from Stafford County’s 6 Bears & a Goat Brewing Company and Potomac Point Winery, as well as food offered by UFO Food Truck. The studio galleries will also be open for viewing during the event, which take place from 6-8 p.m. Admission is free and open to the public. Beer and wine tickets will be available for $5 each with proper identification, and food will be sold from the truck. Pre-registration is requested.
Support for the event is provided by Stafford County Tourism and the UMW Office of Alumni Relations, which encourages UMW alumni participation to renew friendships and introduce new friends to the National Landmark historic site operated by UMW.
The property, both a Virginia Historic Landmark and a National Historic Landmark, is located at 224 Washington St. in Falmouth, across the Rappahannock River from Fredericksburg. Public hours are Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 1-5 p.m.
