LIMA, OH (WLIO) - The creative minds of local high schoolers were on full display at the Allen County Museum.

Artspace/Lima is trying a new event to give emerging artists a chance to exhibit their work. The "Open Wall" exhibit is a first-come, first-served opportunity to get a 6 x 6 space in the Ellen Nelson Gallery. The goal is to foster artistic expression and community engagement. There are 20 spaces available, and the organizers hope that they will fill up quickly. The work will be exhibited from July 9th through the 19th and is open to any artist looking to exhibit their work and have their 15 minutes of fame.
