Artwork will be displayed in a salon style show as a way of highlighting the common influences and inspirations of artists living and working regionally. Each piece will resonate with anyone who has spent time in this beautiful area. There will be a large variety of mediums from painting, pen and ink, photography, fiber art, jewelry, small sculpture and more. Items in the show are mainly smaller in size making them perfect gifts for the holidays. Each item can stand alone or work well in a collection.
