Backroads: Further On Ahead
“Backroads: Further On Ahead” seeks to expand on the popular 2021 theme of “art, less traveled”. This exhibit showcases works of art that venture off the beaten path, especially with regard to travel. Artwork could include places or experiences involving hidden gems, landscapes, nature, special or unusual places, wanderings, odd travel, strange encounters, and/or lost and fading places. Works may incorporate natural elements or folk/Americana themes. “Further On Ahead” is a summer exhibit, and could convey a sense of summer fun in the works (i.e. not winter), and that the journey never ends…!
Works can be from any medium, and are accepted from Emerging, Mid-Career, and/or Professional Artists.
“Backroads: Further On Ahead” In-Person opening reception party will be held Saturday, July 9th, 2022 at 6 PM.
