Golden Tickets

Dear George,

This is the fourth year that the Clifton Cultural Arts Center has hosted The Golden Ticket, a juried art show featuring local artists (painting, photography, sculpture, ceramics, fiber).  The first year the exhibition showcased our Clifton neighborhood, selecting artists who lived or worked within a three-mile radius of the Arts Center.  This year’s show expanded nearly tenfold and included 68 artists  from within a 25-mile radius.  Thus it covered the entire metropolitan area.  It’s great to see how the arts are flourishing in our community.  Here’s just a sampling of the many works that Katja and I enjoyed on our recent visit.  The show remains open through October 2.

Love,

Dave
