Encore Episode: Celebrating the Arts at Smith Mountain Lake 🎨
With this weekend marking Smith Mountain Lake’s 30th Annual Photography Contest & Show, we’re bringing back a special encore episode of the SML Buzz Podcast featuring Sheridan Brown, President of the Smith Mountain Lake Arts Council.
In this meaningful conversation, PJ Belle and Sheridan explore the heart of the local arts community, from Sheridan’s journey to Smith Mountain Lake to the incredible impact the Arts Council has made over the past 36 years. They also reflect on the significance of September 11th, the power of community connection, and how the arts continue to serve as a source of healing, inspiration, and unity.
You’ll hear about the wide range of programs the Arts Council supports, including music, theater, and visual arts, along with the importance of fundraising, youth scholarships, and community involvement in keeping these initiatives thriving.
Whether you’re an artist, supporter, or simply someone who loves this community, this episode is a reminder of how powerful the arts can be in bringing people together.
