This exhibition exemplifies the talents of our members and teaching artists in a variety of mediums including drawing, painting, jewelry, ceramics mosaics, photography, mixed media, and more! This annual exhibition has been named in honor of the late Judy Herman, whose dedication and passion as Executive Director of the Art Center, has made a lasting impact on our community.
Best in Show awards will be given during the opening reception on Saturday, April 5th. That evening, we’ll also be hosting our fan-favorite Ceramics Second Sale and celebrating the opening of our Annual Garden Sculpture Exhibition. Guests will enjoy light bites, beverages, and music while supporting our vision of art for everyone!
