Weekly YouTube show dives into various issues, sites and events in the Page Valley

By Randy Arrington

LURAY, July 22 — This week we visit with members of the Page Valley Arts Council at their “somewhat new” home at The Art Space on 211. Three years ago in July, Jim Mayes opened up his personal creative space for the non-profit group of creators as they moved out of the Warehouse Art Gallery they had occupied in Downtown Luray for 20 years. We’ll talk about that move from downtown, explore the “new” space on 211, and discuss how the Arts Council is still fulfilling its mission with Mayes and fellow members Cathie Miranda, Charleen Johnston and Jim Lagasse.

(Page Valley Livin’~Episode 124 was recorded Tuesday, July 21, and aired Wednesday, July 22, 2026).

Coming up on Page Valley Livin’… in August, we’ll visit with County Administrator Amity Moler to catch up on some county issues, and we’ll preview the upcoming 125th anniversary of the Luray Volunteer Fire Department.

The aim and purpose of these videos is to provide more information about more things that make up the wonderful place we call the Page Valley of Virginia. Serious issues will be handled seriously, while lighter issues may offer more opportunity to have some fun. There is no theme or agenda other than promoting the Page Valley, and trying to better inform the people who both live here and those who love to visit.
