The Dare Arts Gallery displays works in fine art and fine craft that are of exemplary quality and demonstrate creativity and technical mastery. The Gallery is looking for work that is unique. Underrepresented subjects or familiar subjects presented in a new way are compelling to the judges. For example, photography that tells a story is more likely to be considered.
