2017 Sandy Spring Museum Show
"Celebrating Our Neighborhood" proved to be a fitting theme for this year's show. The artists' reception on August 3rd was a great success. Thank you to all who attended and contributed to this fun evening. The Hallway Gallery will be available for viewing until September 5th and those pieces in the Dr. Bird Room will be removed on October 2nd.
Please make it a point to drop by and enjoy the artwork while it is still available. The museum is open Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
