October 1-5
The Junior League of Raleigh, Inc. (JLR) and Visual Art Exchange (VAE) present the Carolina Color: Town & Country juried art exhibition, October 1-5, 2008. Town & Country is a special feature of the JLR's A Shopping SPREE!, an annual four-day shopping fundraiser that attracts more than 13,000 shoppers from around the country. We will be awarding more than $1000 in prizes, but the biggest draws of this exhibit are exposure to 13,000 potential clients and three prestigious jurors and the potential for sales. Last year's exhibit sold nearly 75% of the pieces in the FIRST night!
Juried by: Rory Parnell (of The Collectors Gallery), Bob Rankin (Artist), and Kathleen Reider (Professor of Art at NCSU).
