Common to all of us are the experiences of eating with friends and celebrating life at the dining table. We invite you to explore creative and unconventional interpretations of what graces a table where friends meet for food. Artwork will be displayed collectively as actual table setting installations in the Art League Museum galleries and on the gallery walls. Think about utensils, place settings, centerpieces, serving dishes, candelabras, terrines—anything related to a totally unique fine dining experience.
This exciting opportunity challenges you to showcase your work in an innovative way, in an innovative forum in our upcoming Juried Exhibition, The Fine Art of Dining.
