And if you're a racing fan and plan to be in the southside area sometime before October 23rd you won't want to miss the "Art of Racing" exhibit at the Danville Museum of fine arts and history.
Danville artist Gary Hill, who now resides in Lake Norman, North Carolina is the featured artist in the exhibit.
His paintings are some of the most popular ever in NASCAR with fans and drivers alike.
Hill studied the traditional fine arts at Averett College, but he has always had a love for racing.
The Museum is open seven days a week and is located on Main Street in Danville.
The exhibit runs through October 23rd.
