​​About smallART2026/27: 

smallART 2026/27 is a unique exhibition showcasing the creativity of local artists from the Arts Illiana’s six-county Indiana region (Clay, Parke, Putnam, Sullivan, Vermillion, and Vigo) and the Illinois counties of Clark and Edgar. This intimate collection celebrates the beauty and impact of small-scale art, with each piece measuring no larger than 12" X 12" framed and 12” X 12” X 12” for sculpture. Running from November 13th, 2026, to February 6th, 2027, the exhibition not only highlights the creative spirit of our community but also emphasizes the importance of supporting artists by providing opportunities to sell their works. Come explore how size DOES matter in this special showcase of local talent.
