The 7th Annual <strong>Summer</strong> Soiree will feature an exclusive viewing of<br />
WORD: Text in Contemporary Art. WORD explores artists’ use of text<br />
to convey and emphasize meaning and develop aesthetic. In this<br />
extraordinary exhibition sixteen nationally and internationally<br />
celebrated artists demonstrate that when the use of text is successful,<br />
the inherent lines and shapes become part of the art itself.<br />
