We are excited to announce the award winning works of art for this years juried art show! A sincere congratulations and thank you to all who participated.

Although we were unable to have an opening reception we have had many guests come through to view the show. In lieu of an in person reception we posted this years show to our Facebook Page so those who felt safer at home could continue to practice social distancing. We were glad to see many people interacting with this post, liking the artwork, sharing their favorites, and tagging friends. We thank the community for their continued support of the arts even during confusing times.

The 19th Annual Art Exhibition will be on display until July 10th so we anticipate more guests will stop in to see this years fantastic show! We are open Tuesday through Friday 10:30-5pm and Saturday 10:30-2:30pm. We hope to see you soon!
