New Look at www.spartastore.com

If you’ve not seen the Sparta Store’s website lately, you might want to take a look. We’ve recently reworked it and added some new features and products. The Sparta Store is our retail shop located at 3 North Main Street across from the Alleghany County Courthouse here in town.

We’ve got a unique selection of local themed gifts and graphics that will interest the local folks and those passing through. From Alleghany Genealogical-Historical Society books, to area photographs to postcard sets, there should be something for everyone here.

If you’d like to get our new Newsletter that outlines sales and highlights authors, artists and their products, just register by clicking the Log In link in the upper right hand corner of the home page.

Local artists and craftsmen are invited to sell their products at the Sparta Store and online at www.spartastore.com. We are pleased to be able to offer the site as a service to our smaller customers that might not be ready for their own website. If you’re interested, you can find more information here.

1st Annual Alleghany Empty Bowls Event

Imaging Specialists was fortunate to be able to assist Alleghany Ministerium’s Solid Rock Food Closet with their 1st annual Empty Bowls event taking place April 16, 2010 at Village Park in Sparta.

We printed Announcement Letters, Event Admission Tickets, Flyers, Posters, and Raffle Tickets. We also created a web page for the event. The Raffle Tickets were for an original pottery piece by Alleghany Artist Bet Mangum, in whose honor the event will be held. We shot photos of the pottery and printed them onto the tickets and flyers and added them to the website.
