For 16 years, the FRESH shows have challenged artists from Summit, Medina, Portage, Cayhoga and Stark counties to push the boundaries of what art can be–stylistically, conceptually and technically–and have presented viewers with a new lens through which to see the world. The works feature novel styles, original thinking and demonstrate a high level of skill in the artist’s chosen 2D or 3D media.
THREE G OPENS FOR FRESH
The THREE G Gallery was formerly the Big Box of The BOX Gallery founded and operated by the Artists of Rubber City for 10 years. The AoRC transferred management of the space to Summit Artspace starting in January 2020.
