Come have lunch with us and watch our expert conservation team begin restoring the beloved "BBQ" whirligig, sponsored by Parker’s BBQ . This is a rare opportunity to watch a whirligig be carefully taken down for restoration while enjoying some of Eastern NC’s finest BBQ.
This pop-up is our way of saying THANK YOU to our supporters, volunteers, and community members who helped make this national recognition possible. Come celebrate with us and witness firsthand the artistry and care that goes into preserving Vollis Simpson’s incredible creations!
