The Wake Forest Renaissance Centre, 405 S.

The submission deadline is Sunday, May 24. Designed to give visual artists an opportunity to display and sell their work in a gallery setting, the exhibit will include 64 linear feet of hanging space and a medium-sized display cabinet to showcase 2D and 3D works for art. Selected works of art will be displayed in the Renaissance Centre Arts Annex Monday, June 8, through Friday, July 17. The Renaissance Centre will honor the artists and their works during a special reception on Friday, June 12, from 6-8 p.m. in the Renaissance Centre Arts Annex.
