Changes

In a nod to growing, to reinventing, to defying your critics and to stepping out on your own, we present Changes, a juried show featuring visual works about the many changes in our lives, environment, and thought processes.

This International Show will feature artwork in the categories of painting, drawing, mixed media, sculpture, fiber, and photography. Themes can include your personal changes such as: seasonal, climate, social or economic, relationship, historic, or others.
