Remember the final deadline is 2/15/2023. 2. Every effort will be made to include as many books as possible. Wall and tabletop space can handle 60-70 books! 3. Books can be for sale, with a 60% artist/40% gallery split. 4. Julie is arranging for a “Virtual Tour” for those not able to view in person. 5. We are in the planning stages for a catalogue, and SDBA will absorb the work for new pictures, formatting etc.

We are excited to return to Front Porch Gallery! SDBA first exhibit at the gallery was a Members Exhibit in 2013. We returned in 2020 with our California Natives exhibit.
