Water Works

Water is essential to support all life forms on earth. Artists were invited to enter original works with a personal view of its impact. The power of the oceans, inland seas, and rivers is unlimited. Accessibility to water enables the founding and sustaining of civilization in wildly diverse locations across the planet. We are charged with the continuous preservation of this, our most important resource. “Water Works” will open to the public on Fri., May 10, 2019 with a festive reception beginning at 4:30pm. Awards will be presented at 6:30pm. The exhibition will be on display through August 2nd.

The JUROR for this 24th annual juried competition is Colette Odya Smith.
