Upcoming Exhibit

"Beauty to me is..."

October 2-November 20

This show is open to everybody, any age, any media.  We are encouraging you to be proud of your artistic efforts, whether it be pottery, painting, drawing, writing, needlepoint, quilting, wood carving, etc.  and put them on display during this show.  The piece must fit the theme of what beauty means to you.  A photograph of your grandkids?   A quilt of a sunset?  A painting of a landscape?  A story of a special Christmas? The public will judge this show for best in show ribbons in children and adult categories based on the theme.
