The David Hunter July 4th Live Demonstration Event!

David Hunter has over 80,000 original works of art and has perfected etching. His detailed scenes of coastal life have appeared in galleries and museums worldwide. On July 3rd, 4th, and 6th, 2026, see him create his work in the gallery's main showroom during regular hours. Watch the etching process up close, meet David, and see his unique style for yourself. Don’t miss this live demonstration.

Every year, David creates a new etching for this event. Each piece celebrates the culture and heritage of the Outer Banks. Only 85 are available, and you can find them only at Seaside Art Gallery. They sell out fast, so consider getting one for yourself. You’ll be glad you did.

Buy your etching at the gallery during the event or reserve one by phone. Some are also listed on our website. Contact us today for more information or to reserve your piece.

This year’s new etching will be revealed at the show. Be among the first to see this special piece, inspired by the history and beauty of the Outer Banks. David Hunter brings a new perspective to our coastal heritage.
