CARY, N.C. – Laura Coats, executive director of Cary Visual Art, Inc., has announced that the organization will host a Wishing Well Young Artists Reception on December 3 at 2:00 p.m. in the WakeMed Cary Hospital’s Main Lobby. The Wishing Well program features work by school-aged children and the exhibit is rotated every eight weeks. During each rotation a reception is held for the student artists.
