What's On Your Table?
Amid the rush and excitement of a busy holiday season, we are often presented with moments of quiet. Whether you're taking stock at the end of a long year or taking the opportunity to gather around a table with family and friends, December can be a time for reflection. When we asked a group of local artists the question "What's On Your Table?" their answers were a mix of surprising and uniquely personal creations. The newest exhibition from The Art Center Cooperative and Jacksonville Artists Guild titled "What's On Your Table?" runs Monday, November 28, 2022, through January 5, 2023, in the Gallery at Main Library.
