Little Monsters

We all know them—the little monsters that haunt, terrorize, or cause us to giggle endlessly. These tiny beings emerge from fantasy as well as the real world. Come and see how artists have interpreted their little monsters in the Little Monsters exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery. You’ll find that little monsters can range from the dark and mysterious to the cute and whimsical. Come choose your favorite!

Join us on opening day, Friday, January 7 between 12-9pm for the widest selection of artwork. Mark your calendar now or set a reminder through Eventbrite. While you’re visiting, be sure to check out the “Little Monster” awards highlighting outstanding artworks selected by the curator.
