Artspace Executive Director Sally Windle explains, “This is for all artists. This is one of those things that brings in all the mediums, lots of different people enter this and it’s pretty big for us because this is our 70th year. So actually, the show is older that ArtSpace or the Art Association is. It’s always attracted a really diverse crowd of artists and mediums.”
