Call for Artists – Secret Norwalk Juried Art Exhibtion

History is constantly being made and while it is cleverly preserved in places we don’t often visit, we are intrigued by the stories that can emanate from a niche, a nook, a pass, or a dwelling. The Norwalk Historical Society is on the hunt for photographs, paintings, drawings, models, collages, shadow boxes, etc. representing a special secret place in Norwalk for this juried art exhibition.

Entry Deadline – May 13, 2013
