The Haywood Chamber is delighted to have Twigs and Leaves Gallery as the host of The Exchange on Thursday, February 19th.
A cornerstone of creativity in downtown Waynesville, Twigs and Leaves Gallery inspires and enriches our community through art that reflects the spirit and beauty of Appalachia. Their thoughtfully curated collection of nature‑themed works, along with classes, events, consultations, gift‑wrapping, and convenient shipping services, reflects their belief that art is for everyone.
Twigs and Leaves Gallery is deeply woven into the fabric of Haywood County. They actively support and participate in downtown initiatives and partner with organizations including the Haywood County Arts Council, Smokies Life, Blue Ridge Craft Trails, Haywood Community College’s Professional Crafts Programs, and of course, the Haywood Chamber of Commerce.
We’re grateful for their commitment to abundance, community, joy, service, and growth — values that shine through in everything they do. We look forward to gathering with our members in this vibrant space for an engaging and meaningful Exchange.
About The Exchange: A Chamber Member Networking Series
The Exchange is an exclusive, members-only networking series designed to spotlight local businesses and foster meaningful connections within our Chamber community. Each month, one member hosts a casual gathering where fellow merchants and business owners come together to share ideas, build relationships, and celebrate what makes our local economy thrive.
Hosting is a fantastic way to:
- Showcase your space and services
- Connect with fellow Chamber members
- Highlight what makes your business unique
Events are held on the third Thursday of each month, either in the morning or late afternoon—whichever suits your schedule. Just provide light refreshments, and we’ll take care of the rest by inviting the crowd and promoting your spotlight.
