Northwest Native-Style art show postponed

The Northwest Native-Style Juried Art Show, originally scheduled as the Museum & Arts Center in the Sequim-Dungeness Valley’s featured art exhibit for July, has been postponed. The show has been tentatively rescheduled for the 2013 season. All artists who submitted will be notified and information about the rescheduled show will be announced.

 

“The response was not what we expected and we feel that with better planning we will be able to put together a show that would do justice to the pieces that artists have entered,” said MAC art exhibit committee chairman Linda Stadtmiller. “We look forward to having the show in 2013.”
