Juried Art Show
Jan

to Jan 24

Juried Art Show

We are so excited to announce our first-ever Juried Art Show featuring the artwork of our Little Mountain Little Art League!

A juried art show is an exhibition centered on a single theme chosen by a panel of judges. The goal is to showcase quality art created outside of our studio and encourage our community to join us for an opening reception and awards night on January 22nd.

For this show, we have asked our LM Little Art League Members to create their own master piece inspired by what it means to create art“ish”. One of our core lessons at Called is that there are no mistakes in art; you can take any rogue mark, paint splatter, or piece of trash and turn it into a beautiful masterpiece if you just use a little creativity! We felt this would be a fitting prompt to kick off our first-ever Juried Show and allow each artist in residence to showcase their creativity and ability to make art-ish.

The artwork has been submitted by our League members and will be judged by members of the Little Mountain Community. Thursday, January 22nd, we will host our opening reception and invite the community and family members to join our art league for the judging and awards! The artwork will remain on display at the studio through Saturday, January 24th.

**If you would like to join the art league and take part in the juried show, please click HERE to find out more information!

Inspired by her bold use of pattern, color, and texture, students will learn how to create their own unique collages using a wide variety of materials. This class emphasizes the fun, experimental nature of collage—discovering how unexpected combinations can spark new ideas and artistic freedom.

No prior experience is necessary, just an openness to explore and play.

Tickets are $50 per person, and each participant will leave with their own finished collage to take home.
