Exhibition: Passing Through

We pass through life, through time, and through doors and passageways. What have we seen? What have we missed? What have we experienced along the way?

“Passing Through” is a national juried art exhibition on view at GCAA ArtWorks during the month of October. In addition to the artwork by 24 locals, artists from Georgia, New York, New Orleans, and California were accepted in the show as well. All media and styles are represented: painting, drawing, collage, photography, mixed media, interactive work and sculpture.

Prizes and ribbons for Best of Show $100, Second Place $50, and Two Honorable Mentions will be awarded during the opening reception, judged by Toni Young, professional artist and art educator. Her affiliations include member and/or artistic representation at The Tate Museum of London; Villa Del Seno, Toad Hall Gallery, Nuevo Arenal and Playa Hermosa in Costa Rica; Temple Beth El, St. Petersburg, FL; former state chairwoman of the National League of American Pen Women and has received a number of prestigious awards.
