Cosmos
Calling all South Bay Art Association artists! “Cosmos” invites you to transcend Earth’s boundaries and step into the vast universe. This SBAA group exhibit will explore the awe-inspiring beauty of space—from the swirling galaxies of the cosmos, the ethereal dance of the Aurora Borealis, to the study of Astrology, Astronomy, and depictions of the heavens. All mediums are welcome; you must be a current SBAA member to apply.
Open to all SBAA members in good standing.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE EMAIL INFO@SOUTHBAYART.ORG
