Membership Medley

Prospectus

Blue Line Arts is pleased to present our Membership Medley show each year to celebrate the artists who are supporting members of the gallery. A treasured tradition, this exhibition brings together a range of artists who may be new to the scene, or have been around since the earliest days… and with over 55 years of history, those are some committed members! The support of our members has been essential to keeping our gallery open as a free community resource.
