Seeking "Traditions" based artwork for small exhibition

The City of Torrance Cultural Services Division is producing "Fiddler on the Roof" this summer in the Armstrong Theatre. The run opens on August 11 and goes through August 25.

If you have work for me to consider, please email me several images with details about each one and your resume.
