Inspire Gallery Exhibition: "Close-Ups"

On Display October 13 - November 26, 2023

Opening Reception: Friday, Oct. 13 - 6:30-9 pm



The theme of this show was to challenge the artist to get up-close and personal with their subject matter. The idea behind the "Close-Ups" is to focus attention to one particular thing, piece, person; a snapshot in time which creates an intimate connection with the viewer and tells a visual story without words.
