Montrose Center for Arts is proud to present its first regional juried exhibit showcasing talent from all over Colorado. The artists explore the seven elements of art — line, shape, form, space, value, color and texture — to the fullest extent of their imaginations.
The show reception is April 9 from 5:00pm until 7:00pm.
We apologize that the Call for Artists poster was circulated with incorrect submission dates. The submission period ended March 15.
