Together Again
During 2020, we have been there for the community with virtual exhibits, classes, and free art projects and we are now asking for the community’s support. Twenty-seven local artists donated pieces and all proceeds will help us continue to provide the community with connection through creativity. The auction items are all currently displayed in the Charles Lo Bue Gallery which is open Friday to Sunday from 12-4. Support us now! The last day to bid is May 2nd.
