Our First Virtual Art Exhibit: Members’ Show 2020
Each spring we begin our show season with The Members’ Show. This ever-popular annual event is both an opportunity for our artist members to showcase their work, and a way for us to show our appreciation for their support throughout the year.
The Fifth Annual Members’ Show was scheduled to open on April 25th with a festive reception, but the Pandemic made that impossible. We hope to reschedule for November, but as this is still uncertain, we have taken the plunge and are proud to present this show on-line.
