AUGUST EXHIBIT: Home Within My Heart - People, Places, Cultures

Fishers is a community of many voices and traditions. We all come from somewhere, and each of us has a story to tell. Many of us started calling this country home not that long ago, and no matter how much we grow to love our new home, we always carry love, memories, and deep connections to the places we came from. Tell us stories of your first homeland or give us a glimpse of your first homeland – be it by portraying people, places, or events, depicting traditional motifs or techniques...or whatever else inspires you!

2-D works must be prepped with a wire, weigh no more than 50 lbs., and not exceed more than 42" in any direction. A small number of 3-D work will accepted for display in this exhibit. Artists who are interested will be interviewed during our reception by board member, Pat Grabill.
