This event will be a momentous celebration as we begin a new year!
The exhibition will feature a wide variety of creative interpretations  of the theme “New Beginnings”.  We will present different subjects and all styles — from realism to abstraction — that feature such expressions as dawn, hope, growth, renewal and transformation.  Artists may also share their newest creations, art from their new stylistic direction, or their art using a new medium.

All 2-and 3-d art mediums including painting, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, collage, photography, printmaking, digital art, batik, stained glass, and more, are considered. Exceptions: No AI-generated art, installation art, video art, or graphic erotic art.
