As a local artist, the Mary Hoard Art Show holds a special place in my heart. Not only is it one of my favorite local events, but it also carries a personal connection for me. My mother was a dedicated member of the volunteer committee since its inception, and I am proud to continue her legacy by contributing my time and expertise to the show. From assisting with hanging artwork to sharing my knowledge with participants, I am honored to give back to the community just as she did, ensuring the continued success of this cherished tradition.

Admission Free: Donations gratefully accepted.
