The Annual Exhibit and Opening Event
A gathering of the AWE family celebrating artistic achievement

Each spring our AWE artists are invited to submit works done in AWE classes for inclusion in the Annual Exhibit. Over 100 artworks are then selected and framed to be exhibited together with a photo of the artist and an artists statement or biographical sketch.

The opening event is a celebration of the AWE artists and their communities. Family, friends, and the general public are invited to attend the festivities, held each October. The much anticipated yearly event is an opportunity for all to experience the diverse array of art together.
