Builderbeast

Meeting of the minds and muscle. On-site we need to carefully orchestrate everything-logistics,materials,construction details,scheduling. There’s not shortcut. Just consistency. So thankful to have these guys bringing their best everyday.

Be sure to stop by IX Art Park on your First Friday Art Walk! Five talented local artists will be displaying their works at Builderbeast's Gallery Opening - Department of Spacial Awareness from 5-8 pm. Our artists range from woodworkers, sculpturists, metal workers and plaster casters. Our neighbors at Studio IX have a breathtaking exhibit of painted violins to benefit the CHS Orchestra's String Ensemble.

Talk about attention to detail...these mini sculptures are incredibly intricate and architecturally balanced. Check out the works of Justin Poe at our Gallery Opening tomorrow from 5-8 pm, located in downtown Charlottesville at IX Art Park.
