Reception for Socorro County Women's Art Showcase

All are invited to attend a free Artists Reception at Macey Center Gallery Friday, March 5th, from 6 to 7 p.m., followed by the hilarious musical "Disenchanted," the untold stories of the Disney Princesses (tickets sold separately on nmt.edu/pas). Artists are welcome to invite their friends and family members to join the public in meeting the artists and learning more about their artwork. Appetizer and drink specials (cash bar) will be available at the reception.

Textiles, paintings, drawings, photography and more will be on display during March for a month-long art show featuring the talents of Socorro County women artists. The fifth annual showcase, sponsored by Macey Center and the New Mexico Tech Performing Arts Series, will be held on the second floor of Macey Center every day of March during the facility’s operating hours in honor of Women's History month.

Women of Socorro County have been invited to exhibit up to two pieces of art during the show, which is open to all mediums, including textiles, oil paintings, jewelry, pastels, watercolors, acrylics, photography and pottery. Participation in the exhibit is free.
