How does an artist express themselves in the biggest way in the smallest space? Just think small! This exhibit brings the art down to a miniature size, with its participants making itty-bitty paintings, sculptures and other works to be displayed in a 12 inch by 12 inch format – none larger. Tiny stories are made into 2 and 3 dimensional forms to surprise and delight the viewer. We have 91 imaginative items from 106 entering artists. What an effort it was to whittle these marvelous images down to our exhibit space! This is a favorite show for Lawrence Street Gallery since it gives the public an opportunity to gift friends and family or us with just a little slice of original art for our homes or office.
