CALL for ENTRIES: Las Vegas is Calling!

Call me a
TART

I googled “quince tree,” yesterday. I am moving to a bigger house closer into downtown Gatlinburg, and my new house has two quince trees. Related to the apple and pear, quince is added in small quantities to jams and sauces made of other fruits to add a little tartness. Gotta love the tarty. Maybe this next show will add a little TART your artistic resume. It is worth investigating…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Contemporary Arts Center of Las Vegas for their 23rd Annual Juried Show. The commission is very low, and the deadline is just around the corner. Don’t miss this opportunity to put a Nevada show on your resume!
