Artwork for the exhibition was selected by members of the SRAC visual arts committee from the SRAC Artist Registry, an online digital portfolio displaying work by member artists.  The Artist Registry is a resource for people who would like to purchase original art. Galleries and other professionals have inquired about artwork being available for exhibitions in their businesses.
