This event was originally organized as an annual exhibition of visual artworks created during Open Art Studio sessions or privately by clients, personnel, supporters and guests of The Center. However, because of enthusiastic response by participants and the community, we expanded the idea to include sculpture, poetry, prose, and music. We expanded the event, too. It now consists of:

• A formal Opening of the Visual Arts Exhibition with artists and invited guests.
• An exhibition which includes a visual art display by professional and Open Studio artists, poetry readings and performances of original musical compositions held at The Center, free and open to the public following the opening.
• A traveling visual art and poetry exhibit available on request to churches, schools or other venues in the community.
