Events/Wine Tastings

Where the community gathers to experience, learn, and create.

Our Wine Tasting

What pairs better than art and wine? We’ll save you the trouble, nothing does. That’s why we’ve brought them together under one roof, creating a space where creativity flows as freely as the pours.

As you wander through our collection of locally crafted art and thoughtfully curated gifts, you can sip your way through a rotating selection of wines designed to surprise you every time you visit. Whether you’re here to discover your next favorite artist or your next favorite glass, there’s always something new waiting.

Choose your experience:
• Wine Flight (3 selections) – $12
• Wine Flight (4 selections) – $15
• Wine by the Glass – $6

Come for the art, stay for the wine, and leave with a little inspiration (and maybe a new favorite bottle).

Gallery Exhibition for the works of Tom Szewc (pronounced 'chefs')

July 17, 2026

Open House-6:00 pm-8:00 pm

Food, wine and music provided

Three Rivers Gallery is honored to exhibit the wonderful collection of art by the late artist, Thomas Szewc. Tom was born in Philadelphia and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Philadelphia College of Art, refining his skills in figure painting through intensive study with Arthur de Costa at the Philadelphia College of Fine Art. Additionally, he explored landscape painting and the expressive use of color under the guidance of Wolf Kahn.

To honor his memory, the Thomas E. Szewc Foundation was established with a mission to provide college scholarships for students pursuing Tom’s passion—painting and drawing. This initiative is funded through tax-deductible donations from the sale of his remaining artwork. No salaries will be taken and a large portion of the profits will go toward these scholarships.

What to Expect

What We're Planning

Here's a taste of what's coming to Three Rivers. We want the gallery to be more than a place to look at art. We want it to be a place where people connect with it.

Rotating Exhibitions

Themed shows that change regularly, each one highlighting different artists, mediums, or perspectives from across the Smokies. A new reason to visit every time.

Opening Receptions

Evenings with the artists, conversation, and refreshments. Meet the people behind the work and hear the stories firsthand. Free and open to everyone.

Seasonal Collections

Curated groupings inspired by the time of year and the changing landscape around us. Spring thaw, summer light, fall color, winter quiet. The mountains set the theme.

In the Meantime, Come Say Hello

We may not have exhibitions on the calendar yet, but the gallery is open and full of beautiful work. Stop by 166 Everett Street anytime.
