29th annual Spring Art Show Wrap-up

The 29thannual Spring Art Show came and went like a cool breeze. I hated to see it go. 
Earlier this year, whenever contemplating the painful loss of so many of our esteemed Valley artists (artists who seemed like the lynchpins of the show) I wondered what the May Spring Art Show would be like without their contributions.
It was heartening to witness some mysterious process of balance occur. A kind of equilibrium. 
‘New’ artists came forward –Some in fact new to the Valley, others longtime residents who chose to finally participate.  Other artists who hadn’t exhibited in over a decade returned. I shouldn’t have worried. We had over 90 artists in the Spring Art Show and it felt, to me, fresh and energetic. 
Here are a few photos of some (unfortunately not all) of the artists who participated this year.
