ARTSWIN’s Halloween-themed art exhibit
(All entries must be Pre-Registered)
Concept
The Arts Council is all about Halloween, and we’re back with our annual Spooky Show this fall! Throughout October, our gallery will be packed with spooky, funny, and whimsical creations. We’ll fill our walls with eerie 2D scenes and spirits, but we also want our 3D artists to summon some creepy creatures to haunt the gallery for the season.
