The 2022 “State of the County Address” given by Executive Ilene Shapiro will be held at the John S. Knight Center on Wednesday October 19th. This year the County is honored to have local visual artists display their work on easels during the address in the hallways of the venue.

ArtsNow is seeking artists to participate in this endeavor and is issuing an open call to Summit County artists to submit their work for the one day event. Below we have the artist and artwork criteria, application and timeline for all interested to apply. I have attached a graphic below to share on your social media platforms.
