Barely There Micro Art Showcase

How small can you work and still maintain your style?See how artists have shrunk their work to fit a 1:12 scale and explore many original works and add to your art collection. This unique exhibition is timed so that tiny art (4" or smaller, .25” thickness ) can be purchased as holiday gifts and will feature individual mini solo shows by Chicago area artists in box galleries, micro collections on the wall and a TINY TIN community art salon.
All art forms will be included; painting, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, photography, fiber arts, ceramics. We will have a makers table set up so you can stop by see the show and make something to exhibit or gift - get creative with scale!
Artwork will be family friendly and priced for holiday gifting.
