Just a reminder that AHA! Kenosha will be holding another AHA! Moments meeting on Wednesday, July 1st from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at Lemon Street Gallery–4601 Sheridan Rd. This is a free event and open to the public, in an effort to help raise awareness of the AHA! Kenosha organization and the arts in Kenosha. Enjoy an evening of sharing ideas, networking, refreshments, a group art project, and learn more about this month’s Member Spotlight organization, Lemon Street Gallery.

The opportunity to exhibit original artwork in legislators’ offices at the State of Wisconsin Capitol Building in Madison is open to all current artist members of Arts & Humanities Alliance of Kenosha (AHA! Kenosha) members. All wall-hung media 20 pounds or less will be considered. Please weigh your artwork, and do not submit work that is heavier, as the hanging system at the State Capitol is only rated for this weight. Artists may enter one art piece per exhibit up to 4 feet in any direction. NOTE: Submit work that is at least 14” up to 48” in any direction, not tiny pieces. A total of about 20 pieces will be selected for each exhibit. Although works will be available for sale, we consider this exhibition opportunity to be more for resume-building than a sales outlet.
