SAVE THE DATES!
We have BIG plans for the year beginning with our second ArtFULL Day in the ‘Ville. We plan to have a show of high school student art at the BAA with students showing their art and selling items. A reception will be held for them on Friday, March 24. On Saturday, March 25, we will again have studio tours of eight of our local artists and the student exhibit will be open all day. More details will follow as we complete planning.
Be thinking about what you want to submit for the 2023 Annual Art Show which will be at the Lyon Gallery at The Center during the month of September.
