WICKWIRE fine art/folk art was founded by Barbara Wickwire in May 1998 and co-owned in April, 1999 by Shirley Palmer-Hill 
who became sole-owner in July 2000. Today, along with husband Dave and a dedicated staff, WICKWIRE has expanded to two locations totaling 3700 square feet and an Online Gallery. Artists create an exemplary and beautiful source for these endeavors -- all who are involved share their expertise; WICKWIRE continues to provide visitors distinctive art choices year after year.
The Gallery's focus has always been on what it can offer the community with memberships in all art-associated organizations in Henderson County. Shirley was awarded 'Small Business Leader of the Year' in 2001 by The Greater Hendersonville Chamber of Commerce and has constructively served on Boards which support the Arts and Historic Downtown Hendersonville. The Gallery's success is proudly due to its leadership, staff teamwork, and partnership with the Artists. TESTIMONIALS. . .
