The Stokes County Arts Council is pleased to announce the opening of an exhibit of original art,
by Gray Rutledge and Sharon Brooks in the Apple Gallery. A meet and greet is scheduled for
Saturday, October 14, 2023 from 3:30pm-5:00pm at The Arts Place of Stokes 500 Main Street
Danbury, NC.
Gray Rutledge and Sharon Brooks first began to pursue their interest in art about 3 years ago.
After studying the techniques and use of various mediums of other artists, they began painting.
Their new passion for art has grown over the years to what it is now – The Weathered Owl Art
Studio.
Gray is a native of Stokes County. Sharon is originally from Forsyth County but has been
residing in Stokes County over 20 years. Both Gray and Sharon attended Surry Community
college. They are self-taught artists. Gray and Sharon use both oil and acrylic paints on stretched
canvas, canvas board and glass. They have been fortunate enough to have some of their paintings
reproduced into signed and numbered prints through the help of the Tim Bruce Art Gallery.
Gray and Sharon were featured in an article in the Foothills Tims magazine and have been juried
in various art competition events.
The works in the Apple Gallery exhibit are titled “Brush Strokes”. The frames were made by the
artists from repurposed wood.
This exhibit in the Apple Gallery will be on display from October 1-November 30, 2023. The
Stokes County Arts Council is open to the public Monday through Friday, 9:00am-6:00pm,
Saturday, 10:00a.m.-6:00p.m. and Sunday 12:00pm-6:00pm. For additional information about
the exhibit, please contact the Stokes County Arts Council at (336) 593-8159 or visit www.stokesarts.org.

The Meadows of Dan Ruritan Club and Fire Department will host the 56th annual Pancake Days fundraiser on Sunday, October 15, and Sunday, October 22, 2023, from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. at the Meadows of Dan Community Building (2858 Jeb Stuart Highway, Meadows of Dan, VA 24120).
The Pancake meal features a selection of buttermilk pancakes, buckwheat pancakes, sausage, gravy, and all the fixings. Both buckwheat and buttermilk pancakes have never been made from a mix. Clara Harrell and Claudia Wood provided the original recipe that is still used today.
Prices at the door are $12 for adults, and $6 for children ages twelve and under. Cash and credit cards will be accepted. To-go orders are available and Neese’s freshly ground sausage, seasoned just right, will be available for sale, too. Commemorative tee shirts will be available for purchase.
Over 50 years ago, this event started out serving $2 plates raising $200. Today an average of 2200 people are served each Sunday. People come from states away—Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. One couple stumbled across the very first Pancake Days on their honeymoon. They have made it a yearly trip. Pancake Days is a tradition not just for our mountain town but for all those who have been gathering with us for over half a century.
Proceeds from Pancake Days benefit various local community causes and organizations including the volunteer fire department, rescue squad, schools, college scholarships, food drives, and other needs in Patrick County. When someone has a need in this community, they know they can bring it to the Ruritans. It is the money raised at Pancake Days that allows the Ruritans to help.
“Families from miles around come together to host Pancake Days,” says Debra Shelor, Ruritan Treasurer. ”The impact on our community is significant by supporting youth education, ensuring our local safety squad can care for area residents, and that our community building remains a place for all area events.”
“The Ruritans aren’t the only organization putting on the event,” says Emily Handy, Chairman of Pancake Days. “It’s also the fire department and the rescue squad. We could not do this without them. It isn’t about a group; it is about everyone coming together.”
This is an intergenerational Fall tradition that has persisted for over 50 years. Bring the family for a not-to-be-missed event and become part of our heritage.
Tax-deductible donations are being accepted online for those who cannot attend. Visit the RuritanMOD.square.site for more information or to donate today.
