If you guessed a SPECTACULAR art exhibit that will remain in place until March 27th, you are correct! Art in the Heart set up their annual exhibit yesterday at the Bangor Mall and it is AWESOME!

Thanks to the following teachers who went above and beyond to facilitate the creation of the exhibit: Eric, Sasha, Nancy, and Helena for moving the panels. Courtney for publicity, Jenn for registration, Sarah for supplying materials, and all the members who traveled from near and far with their student work and for taking the time to put the work in place. You can see this process by clicking here, a clip from WABI TV5, and their coverage of the show. Also, thank you to University of Maine Museum of Art, Bangor Mall and the Rudnicki family for storing the display boards when not in use.
