🐝 Excited! July Member show! (CLOSED)

What the BUZZ - BAA Member Show July 2021

BAA is BUZZING with the news of our next member show called “What’s the Buzz?” The month-log July show will be held at our new show gallery “The Gallery at @ the Bus Stop Apartments” located at North Broadway in Boulder.

Member artists are invited to create two pieces.

1. 8×8 panel inspired by bees: Spread your wings, let your fancy fly, and have fun!
**Note: BAA is not supplying panels. See notes below on where to purchase.

2. Main Showpiece: What’s happening in your world? What inspires, engages, uplifts and/or stirs you? What’s on your mind, personally, locally or globally?

2D and 3D pieces welcome! (No size restrictions, however, please contact us at info@boulderartassociation.org if you are thinking of something “outside the box” so that we may confirm whether or not we can accommodate your piece..)
