Heritage Arts Center

01/23/2026

The Heritage Arts Center has recently undergone a name change to reflect the broader character of the facility and is now the Northern Neck Heritage Arts Center. It is much more effective at describing what we do here! And the store is now being called the Tavern Artisans Store. Susie Stough has started to post store news on the foundation's page and we ask that all of our and friends, please navigate to the new page at https://www.facebook.com/taverninheathsville

Home to the Tavern Café & Bakery, Artisans Store, Heathsville Farmers Market, Artists' Studios, Heritage Classes, and four traditional guilds: Quilting, Blacksmithing, Woodworking, and Spinning & Weaving. Celebrating the heritage of the Northern Neck.
