A Community Art Exhibit
Exhibit It! is a non-juried group show open to artists ages 16 and up. Artists select 1 piece of work in any medium (limit 30″ in any direction, including frame, and no more than 50 pounds). All artworks must be framed, or ready to instal. Drop-off is Friday, June 27, beginning at 11:30 AM and the first 50 artworks will be accepted after the artist pays a small admittance fee.
Art in Action
Art in Action is a drop-in program for ages 5-12 that engages kids in art projects that are fun, creative, and collaborative with their family members. No registration is required, but space and supplies are limited to the first 25 participants per session. Please note that starting in 2025, the Art in Action program is moving to one workshop per quarter due to limited funding. We’ll be offering two sessions per workshop, however, to include more opportunities for families to participate.
