Event Description:
FIRED UP is a call to artists, both APBC members and non-members alike, for a small works exhibit of all mediums - 2 and 3-dimensional work - painting, photography, collage, mixed media, etc. We are pleased that pedestals will be available, so we encourage the submission of ceramics, sculptures, and other 3 dimensional works.

No applications will be accepted after the deadline!
