Vik Sexton, a Greenville artist, presents fun but creepy sculptures made of clay.

Abstract:
Many buildings downtown in Greenville once contained a number of prominent retailers. A site on Fifth Street first held the Glascow Evans Livery stable in 1890. Other companies used the same site, but the first major company to lease the building was Montgomery Ward in 1928. In 1932, Quinn-Miller Furniture moved in, then Belk-Tyler in 1938. Today, the building houses Crossbones Tavern and apartments.

C. Heber Forbes, a leading merchant in Greenville, renovated the old Anderson house on the corner of Tenth and Cotanche Streets into one of the most memorable houses in Greenville. Forbes went to St. Louis and bought the interior furnishings from a house owned by the Lambert family, makers of Listerine mouthwash. He purchased architectural details, mantels, mouldings, lighting, silk covered chairs, thick wool carpets and other French style furnishings and brought it all back to Greenville by train. The house was gutted and dissembled in 1976 and taken to Simpson, NC.
