Eighty pieces of art were submitted to this exhibit. This includes all kids of artwork, including sculptures, pottery, glasswork, pictures, paintings and a baby goat made out of forks, Gallery Director Stacey Pickens said.
“(I am) very happy with 80 pieces of artwork,” she said. “We were concerned about how we were going to get it all hung on the walls.”
