The Unconventional Still Life – Opening Reception

Opening Reception

This exhibit invited artists to explore the Still Life genre in unexpected ways.  Rather than seeking traditional, decorative still life works we asked for work that reimagines object groupings in ways that challenge, reinterpret, or expand the genre.

Join us to hear the exhibit judge’s choices for award winners. 

Light refreshments served.
