Behind the scenes in November: we’re collecting feedback from our year; working on special projects like bridges, signs, or exhibit maintenance; putting together the annual appeal; and switching over to the annual Gift of Art show from this year’s Power of Perspective. Sometimes we design new traveling exhibits or start any winter program series. We invite all artists to pick up their works; we’ll have a new theme soon!
