DESCRIPTION
3RD ANNUAL HOLIDAY SALON showcases over 20 artists at the ArtX Community Gallery with a floor to ceiling exhibit in the spirit of the Salon d’Apollon. This salon (est 1648) shifted art viewing from museum walls of dead artists to gallery walls of living artists. This collection of work encourages patrons to purchase art for the holidays by showcasing several artists in a diverse range of mediums. The annual salon has grown from a few dozen pieces in its first year to over 200 pieces this year.TRANSCRIPT
