THEME: SPECTACULAR SPOOKS
Impasto Art Gallery presents SPECTACULAR SPOOKS. We are seeking works that examine anything that goes bump in the night. Think spooky, mystical, unearthly. Let your imagination run wild.
This group exhibition is an opportunity for artists to exhibit and sell their work in Prospect New Town’s own urban chic Impasto Art Gallery. Impasto Art Gallery will sponsor an opening reception night for artists and collectors including wine and appetizers. Impasto Art Gallery also showcases the exhibition online with a modern presentation and convenient online shopping. Every day of the show we feature and promote artist’s work from the exhibition through our social media channels.
