ART! The Big Show at Imago Foundation for the Arts (IFA)
IFA is proud to announce “THE BIG SHOW,” an open community exhibit, kicking off on Saturday, January 13, with a complimentary public reception that evening from 5-8 pm in honor of the 103 extraordinary artists participating in this exhibit.
As part of IFA’s ongoing celebration of its 20th anniversary, BankNewport is generously sponsoring cash awards, with selections to be made by Guest Juror Michael Rich, a well-regarded Rhode Island artist and Professor of Visual Arts at Roger Williams University in Bristol, RI.

Additionally, our artist members will be noting their favorite works with Imago Recognition labels. These special accolades, extended by the organization, aim to acknowledge the exceptional talent reflected in this year’s submissions and our heartfelt gratitude to participants for helping us present an exhibition that truly captures the essence and diversity of the regional artistic community.
This year, the exhibit exceeded past community exhibitions by attracting 103 artists and 232 artworks representing a wide array of media, styles, and subject matter. Both two-dimensional and three-dimensional work is included.
Don’t miss the opportunity to purchase exceptional works of art on a cash-and-carry basis throughout the exhibit as you immerse yourself in the vibrant world of art at THE BIG SHOW.
Regular gallery hours for the exhibit are Thursdays 12-3, Friday and Saturday 12-6 & Sunday, 12-4.

IMAGO Gallery is located at 36 Market Street, Warren, RI 02885 401 245 3348
