Words for 2020!

At the start of a new year, folks often consider making a resolution to start the year off right.  Often these resolutions drop by the wayside. What if instead of a full blown resolution, we chose a word to keep by our side to guide us through our many decisions in the year 2020.  Imagine a word like DREAM and how that could help support your thinking as the year goes on about the climate, your art work or your activity in your community.

This year, Grand Isle Art Works invites you to consider what your WORD for 2020 will be.  As an artist, your job will be to create the essence of this word as it means to you to be displayed in the gallery over the spring / summer.  GIAW will host a gallery show and silent auction to benefit several non-profits. Choose one of our favorites or designate your own cause.

Head over to the WORDS page for more information on how to sign up!
