The Artist Expo
It's our 5th year at this endeavor.
This endeavor which is the wonderful pursuit of connecting artists with their community.
We started so small and hopeful, squeezing 12 aspiring visual artists and two musicians into a two bedroom home for an art show.
And it worked.
It worked year after year. And while we started with artists new to the scene, fresh in their pursuit of the arts, we now find our group to be a bit more varied. We've developed into a bit more seasoned bunch. We have artists straight out of college and artists enjoying their retirement. But most of all we have a group of very successful artists. Artists that are doing what they love and making a life out of it. Some are making a living out of it.
And so, for our 5th year for this annual event, we have a new name for our event that better sums up who we are. We are no longer starving artists. We are artists, plain and simple. Artists that are excited and ready to show what we've accomplished in this past year. What skills we've honed in these 12 months and products we've created.
So mark your calendars come on out to The 5th Annual Artist Expo.
