Exhibition Opening – There are No Rules

“There Are No Rules”, an exhibition by Queen City 15 Gallery member artists to show what happens when artists defy their own conventions and norms as well as those of society. The work on display captures the creativity and surprises that often result when the artist takes a leap of faith, steps away from the tried and true and tries out new ideas, processes, color palettes and materials.
The show is on display through August 29.
