About the Show
The Will's Creek Competition & Exhibition of Fine Art is one of the signature events of the Allegany Arts Council, celebrating contemporary art in a variety of mediums.
Now, more than 20 years since its inception, the show continues to stretch the boundaries of contemporary art that reflect the issues that shape our world.
Today, these tumultuous times have clearly dictated the many changes, transformations, and transitions we find ourselves, our society, and the world going through.
To this end, 2022’s Will’s Creek Competition and Exhibition of Fine Art invited artists to submit their artwork related to the theme: Metamorphosis.
The exhibition will run in the Saville Gallery from September 3-24, 2022!
