6x6(x6) Preview Show!

It’s back! The Open Studios Art Tour Preview Exhibition, a digital presentation of work by all artists in the Open Studios Art Tour and over 100 6x6(x6) small works, will be featured once again in ARTS Space Obispo from September - October 2010. Now is the time to start thinking about your entry into the 6x6(x6) show!

Eligibility & Acceptance:
The 6x6(x6) show is open to all artists participating in the 2010 Open Studios Art Tour. One entry may be submitted for each catalog listing.
