Our early spring exhibit will feature artistic depictions of portals and passages and runs from March 12 to April 23, 2023. Windows, doorways, arbors, streams, creeks, bridges, tunnels, pathways, trails, sidewalks, boardwalks, piers or other natural or manmade constructs of the above will be the inspiration for your designs. We look forward to seeing a variety of genres with this exhibit from the ethereal, surreal, abstract to representational imagery.
Our sponsor for the exhibition will be the Cultural Alliance of York County: YoCo Arts & Culture Pass. With the YoCo Arts & Culture Pass you can experience it all as you explore the thriving arts and culture scenes all around York County, PA.
