Sunflower Show 2017 Entries

Here are the entries for our August 2017 Sunflower Show to be held at the Booklovers’ Gourmet in Webster.

If I missed anybody, please let me know!

It looks like we have the perfect number of entries for the walls. That means each person gets to put theirs live :). If you haven’t submitted your title, medium, and price yet via the submission form, please send that in now for your piece of art. That way we know what to put on the labels.

Thank you to everyone who is participating!
