Studio 23/The Arts Center welcomes the artists of Saginaw Area Watermedia Artists (SAWA) for a group exhibition. SAWA is a Michigan nonprofit organization with a focus on creating, displaying, and discussing art created in water-based mediums. The artists of SAWA explore both traditional and experimental techniques in this exhibition, with artwork that ranges from classically representational to pure abstraction and all stages in between. The paintings on display illustrate the variety and creativity that can be found within water-based art media. In addition to watercolor, the work on display includes combinations of gouache, acrylic, and mixed- media collage.

Join us for an opening reception on Thursday, March 5, from 5 to 7 p.m. Awards selected by juror Armin Mersmann will be presented during the reception.

Reception is free and open to the public.
