Celebrate the Arts!- 2012 is different from prior years.  For 2012, the program will consist of only a juried visual art exhibition at Cochise College, Benson Center.  The exhibition will run from March 1^st through March 29^th.

The exhibition will include all two-dimensional works; oil, acrylic, pastel, watercolor, pen & ink, charcoal, collage, to name a few.  Photography, sculpture, jewelry and crafts are not included.  We are investigating having a photography, sculpture and jewelry show later in 2012.

The exhibition is open to the public at no charge.  You may view the work of our artist members Monday through Thursday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. and Friday, 8:00 am to 3:00 pm.  Also Saturday, March 3^rd from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm.

The opening reception and award ceremony is Saturday, March 3 from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Cochise College, Benson Center.  The reception is open to the public at no charge and will include hors d’oeuvres and recognition of award winners.  This is an excellent opportunity for those who appreciate fine art to meet our local artists.
