College Park Seniors Art Show CANCELLED

Dear Exhibitors and Friends,

It is with heavy heart that we announce the cancellation of the Sr. Art Show and Reception at the CSC this Friday.  We were so looking forward to gathering for this very special event, but the growing virus concerns have made it seem most prudent.    Should we have an opportunity to reschedule in the future, you will be the first to know.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and support.   Stay well and please share the news with any of your friends and family planning to attend.
