October- In Disguise
The month of Halloween is the perfect time to celebrate mask making. It seems like a fun idea to showcase the originality and beauty of hand crafted masks on the gallery walls. Any mask, in any medium… wearable or not… will be considered for this show. Make it fun, make it crazy, make it delightful with unexpected materials. And the good news is that if you want to wear your mask to a Halloween party, the show will end on the weekend before Halloween, so you can both show your creation and wear it.
There is room as well for wall art that depicts masks in any way that inspires the artist.
