This exhibit will explore art as an ongoing process of creation, from when an artist first gathers moments of inspiration for a new piece to the time when a viewer responds to the artwork. When viewers respond to art, they co-create a new conversation and that experience is art in and of itself.
A range of mediums will be represented: collage, fiber, assemblage, and painting. We invite the community to participate in many thought provoking ways and will offer opportunities for making, discussing, and viewing the exhibit.
Submissions are accepted until March 1, 2024 at midnight.

Exhibit Theme - Unveiling Creativity: Art As Conversation
This exhibit, running March 20th- May 15th, will explore art as an ongoing process of creation, from when an artist first gathers moments of inspiration for a new piece to the time when a viewer responds to the artwork. When viewers respond to art, they co-create a new conversation and that experience is art in and of itself. We invite you to submit pieces exploring the process of creativity and art-making through collage, fiber, assemblage, or painting. We’ll host opportunities for local residents to respond to your work through making, discussing, and viewing programs.
