I have been able to utilize their exhibit hall twice now for my art. The first was a combined exhibit featuring myself, my business partner, and one of our vendors. The exhibit was all art made from recycled and re-purposed books and book pages.
The current exhibit is completely my own art. It is mixed media, collage and assemblage. I am very happy with the response I have gotten so far. I hung the art January 5th. The opening reception was held the evening of January 8th. The reception was well attended and I sold 6 pieces during that time. I have since sold 3 more pieces. The exhibit will run until March 12, 2016.
