ARTS OPEN CALL

Arts Open Call is a fantastic community exhibit featuring works from all your favorite local artists. The best part? You can purchase these works online via The Greater Denton Arts Council’s beautiful, new online marketplace. What is even better than that is that 50% of the sales of artworks benefit the exhibition’s artists while remaining funds will support the education programs of the Greater Denton Arts Council.
