Art Council Executive Director, Nicole Willis met with us before the expo to talk about giving local artists a chance to show their bodies of work.
“The beauty of it is it gives all of our artists in the region an opportunity to enter work, if they don’t have enough work for like, a personal exhibition, it gives them the opportunity to show work, and be a part of our community. The goal of the exhibition is to build a community of artists and give them an opportunity to share their work,” said Nicole Willis, Executive Director of Albany Area Arts Council (AAAC).
