Florida Women’s Arts Association is partnering with Ormond Beach MainStreet for a first annual event designed to exhibit local artists in our community and boost the retail economy in Ormond Beach.

From January 14 to 22, 2017 works from local artists will hang in various business venues along Granada Blvd., between US 1 and A1A. There will be both a printed and an online map showing the venues and the public will have access to an online app to vote for their favorite pieces.

At the end of the show, there will be a gala to award monetary prizes and the winner’s art will stay on display for a month in a sponsored venue.

All Ormond Beach residents and all members of Florida Women’s Arts Association are eligible to enter. If you are NOT an Ormond Beach resident, you may join the FLWAA for as little as $25 per year.
