The Burgwin-Wright House is pleased to welcome two sisters, Annie Ingram and Hiedi Woessner, to our gallery for their show “Salt Sisters: Marsh to Mellow.”
Their artworks will be on display and for sale in our art gallery through March 21. Admission is free. The gallery is open Monday-Saturday 10am-4pm.
About the Show“Salt Sisters: Marsh to Mellow” is a celebration of place, peace, and sisterhood. For sisters Annie Ingram and Hiedi Woessner, the coast has always been their happy place - a space to breathe, reflect, and feel grounded.
Though their styles differ, their inspiration is shared. Hiedi paints calming, expansive ocean scenes that invite stillness and quiet reflection. Annie’s current work captures the colorful, joy-filled rhythms of the marsh, alive with movement, warmth, and light.
Now living near one another along the coast of North Carolina, the sisters often paint with their toes in the sand, translating the same shoreline into two distinct emotional experiences - one mellow, one vibrant - connected by salt air and shared memory.
