NARROWSBURG – The Delaware Valley Arts Alliance (DVAA) warmly invites the community to celebrate the 22nd year of their eagerly-awaited, annual small works group exhibition, Art In Sixes.

This year’s exhibition includes over 700 works by over 260 artists.

The opening reception will take place from 3-6pm on Saturday, November 14th and attendees can expect a buzzing crowd of art lovers wandering through this huge show, which showcases hundreds of tiny works by local artists in a dizzying display that takes over every wall across both floors of DVAA’s galleries.

“‘Art in Sixes’ is the perfect entry into the holiday season – it brings together all the communities DVAA serves amidst the warm glow of 6-inch by 6-inch gems that cover every wall of DVAA. From our young future art masters to our region’s revered artistic talents, this annual tradition truly celebrates the creativity that makes the Sullivan Catskills and Upper Delaware Valley Region so special,” said Ariel Shanberg, DVAA Executive Director.

Each original artwork measures 6 inches or less in any direction and is priced between $60 and $600, perfect for unique holiday gifting. You will find diverse artworks, from drawings, paintings, photographs, printmaking, sculptures, and ceramics to woodwork, fiber arts, collage, and more. Your art purchase adds to your collection and directly supports the artists and DVAA.

The community is invited to the opening reception on Saturday, November 14th, from 3 pm to 6 pm. The event is known for its electric atmosphere, where art enthusiasts and artists shmooze over wine and food while supporting their local art scene by snapping up their favorite pieces. By the end of the event, the exhibition is usually awash in distinctive red dots, marking pieces as SOLD.

Be sure to check out the youth corridor displaying artworks by the next generation of artists. DVAA once again invited local school children to participate in "Art in Sixes" and hosted a drop-in art-making session at DVAA led by teaching artist, Adrienne Hloderwski. The program was a resounding success, attracting artworks from young people in Sullivan County, NY, and Wayne and Pike Counties, PA. A record-breaking number of schools participated this year, including Sullivan West Elementary School, Sullivan West High School, Center For Discovery’s School of the Arts, Liberty High School, Liberty Middle School, Wayne Highlands Middle School, BOCES, Honesdale High School and Homestead School.

"Art in Sixes" will be on view at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance, 37 Main Street, Narrowsburg, NY, from Saturday, November 14th, through Wednesday, December 23rd. They will be extending hours on Fridays and Saturdays while the exhibition is on view.
