Visual Artist Spotlight
Microgalleries
CFA’s Microgallery events are a wonderful way to show your artwork and gain traction in the local community.
The CFA and Microgalleries provide an exhibit space, beverages, and snacks for an opening reception. In return, the artist will attend the First Friday opening reception, and replaces any artwork that is sold at this exhibit with more of their own comparable work. They will maintain the exhibit for the duration of the exhibit period.
