A small private studio on the second floor of the visual arts center will be provided at no charge to an emerging artist who wants to build a new body of work for exhibition. Click here for more details... The Parade is Coming! This vibrant show includes work in a variety of media and installations that depict the excitement, content, and vivid colors associated with parades -- marching bands, floats, color guards, politicians working the crowd, parade stands, and characters in the parade audience -- as well as more solemn processions and marches. In addition to works on the walls, we will assemble a parade involving a group of artists’ sculptural works in a variety of media. Join the parade!
