NC Establishment #219
Our building has power but no water and is in need of an HVAC and water heater repair before we can re-open for traditional services.
We are doing a donation clinic out front of our building - clothed 20 minute sessions on a table or massage chair - 10/5 thru 10/9 from 2-6 pm. Suggested $0-50.
We for sure will be taking 10/10 and likely 10/11 off from the clinic, but will resume 10/12 from 2-6 pm - updates here and on our FB page.
We are coordinating a possible re-open with limited services early next week - shorter, clothed focal sessions that we can hygienically do without full water and will update as soon as we know for sure.
If you'd like to help support our business in a different way, you can purchase a gift card for the client "Hurricane Helene" and use the email address of hello@blackmountainmw.com. We will then get these GC amounts compiled and organized to first responders and others in need over the coming weeks/months of mental, emotional and physical recovery.

Meet Linda Pannullo
Pronouns: She/Her
In 2006, I took a week-long mosaic workshop with Sherri Warner Hunter at Arrowmount School of Arts and Crafts in Gatlinburg, TN. We banged lathe into rock shapes, cut tile for our 3D forms, assembled our totems and I was hooked!! So in between raising 3 children and managing a massage practice, I found time to create mosaics. I traveled to workshops and then. about 5 years ago, decided to hold them in my home town, Asheville, NC. I kicked off my 1st year with Carol Shelkin and Kelley Knickerbocker. Both have returned and were joined by others - Dianne Sonnenberg, Laura Rendlen, Margo Anton, Martin Cheek, Gila Rayberg, Donna Van Hooser, Yulia Hanansen, Debra Mager. Every year I look for new artists with their particular specialty for all levels so you can keep on learning!!
I love to teach; I'm yearly at the John C Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC usually doing various mosaic classes. I am very fond of FUNctional Art and continue to grow as an artist.
In 2021, I was the 1st artist to have a mosaic installation at the NC Arboretum and received a grant from the Haywood County Arts Council to mosaic my concrete chair.
I accept commissions, do pet portraits, and love to help people repurpose their cherished cracked china into new works of art. You can find my work at K2 Fine Home Furnishing in downtown Asheville as well as at Black Mountain Massage & Wellness in Black Mountain.

Meet Sandy Herrault
Pronouns: She/Her
I am a musician and artist living in the Asheville area. Playing violin has been my passion and career for most of my life. In the pat five years, I have been equally engaged in both music and creating art.
It has been a wonderful journey, using subject, brush stroke and color to paint how I see the world. My choice of what to paint, reflects my fascination with animals, natural beauty, musical instruments, etc...
It is my hope that peace, beauty and awareness can be communicated through my canvas and bring enjoyment.
In 2022 my work, 'Over the Blues' featuring a Highland cow, won the Fin Art America Billboard contest and was featured on a billboard in Atlanta.
My website is the place to find all new art and show dates.
