8th Annual Series Show

The Blackstone Valley Art Association is sponsoring its 8th Annual Series Show! This is a fun, creative art show which celebrates the magic of creating artwork in a series.

This show is for all BVAA members* to participate in. You can submit two or three artwork items as your series. They can be related to each other in any way that you wish. It’s wholly up to you to define the theme of your series. Maybe they are all shades of blue. Maybe they’re all landscapes. Do they all involve triangles? Cows? You can mix your artwork styles. Do one photo, one sculpture, and one watercolor painting. Explore your creativity!

*Open Sky individuals needing assistance with membership or submission fees should contact Michelle at michelle.benjamin@openskycs.org.
