St. Tammany Homestead (presenting sponsor of Three Rivers Art Festival) and the Center of Performing Arts host this free event promoting local artists in the festival. The first of the “Meet the Artist” series this year will feature the work of Steve Savoye, owner of Savoye Originals Gallery on Columbia Street. Savoye’s work is inspired by the craftsmanship of his father, from whom he first developed an appreciation for details and materials. His pieces show his passion for woodworking with a funky New Orleans flair while displaying his quirky sense of humor. All of Savoye’s work is created from salvaged and reclaimed materials, and each piece has its own unique and refreshingly different style.
This event will be held at the St. Tammany Homestead and Center of Performing Arts building, and will feature fine wines and other refreshments from Acquistapace’s Covington Supermarket. Savoye Originals Gallery is located at 405 N. Columbia St.
