activities. Square Peg Group Troupe will be present as costumed works of art. Local musician
Kathy Brink will perform beautiful music and KICK-FM will broadcast from the event.

In addition to hands-on activities and artist demonstrations, the Art Center will have two exhibits
on display during the event. The Forest Within by Carlos Zamora will be on display in the
Sinnock Gallery, and the 13th Annual Member Exhibit will be on display in the Stevenson
Gallery. Zamora will be at the Art Center to talk about his work.
