“I have had the privilege to work in various capacities at Hickory Arts: as an actor working with Jeff, John, and Carol Anne, giving a gift of a photography session with Carol Anne to a friend, and as a parent of a middle and high school guitar student. The professionalism shown in every experience was exceptional. Jeff, John, and Carol Anne are consummate professionals and have the ‘Midas touch’ when it comes to all things theatre. Carol Anne’s photos are stunning, and my daughter showed outstanding growth in her guitar lessons and still plays well to this day. Choose Hickory Arts! You won’t regret it.”
