Harwood

Exhibit Archives: December 5 - 21, 2007

This year Harwood offers a new take on our annual fundraiser. Artists — emerging, established, strictly speaking and also in a loose sense of the word — were invited to create a piece of art on a 12 x 12 inch sheet of plywood. Then, we asked them to sign the work on the back. You’ll know who is in the show, but you won’t necessarily know what they created. Each piece is $144, or a dollar per square inch and every bit goes to support Harwood, a center for community and the arts.

Embrace mystery. Buy what you love. Support Harwood!
