The Artclectic committee wants to hear from PDS/USN families and friends about their favorite artists.
By Susan Chapman, Artclectic Coordinator
The artist application process has opened for this year's Artclectic, our annual fundraiser and art show. In hopes of expanding the variety of participants, the committee is looking to PDS/USN families and friends for recommendations on artists to approach. Acceptance isn’t guaranteed, but giving jurors a wide variety of artists to choose from makes the show more vibrant and diverse.
Artclectic 2023 will be held Thursday, October 19 through Saturday, October 21 at University School of Nashville. Proceeds benefit the Endowment for Innovative Teaching.
