All work will be shown at the art show throughout the day on Oct. 7 at the library. There will be an awards reception at 2 p.m. that day.

All work must be new to this 2023 exhibition. The alliance requires a 20% donation on sales of work during the exhibit. Consider this when pricing a piece. Please place a value or NFS if it is not for sale. Entry forms are available at the library.
