The interactive and educational exhibit will be on display at the Kingsport Renaissance Center (1200 E. Center Street, second floor) from July 14 through Aug. 15.

“Kingsport’s community of painters, carvers and designers came together to create a traditional carousel in our downtown and the iconic attraction still elicits a strong sense of community 10 years later,” Cultural Arts intern Alyssa Lindsey said in a news release.

A preview of the exhibit is on display until July 3 in the Circle Gallery at Kingsport’s City Hall (415 Broad Street, first floor)
