You can see their artwork in person at the Target Gallery (studio 2 in the Torpedo Factory) through April 10, 2016 at the Newly Juried Artists Exhibition. The reception is Sunday, April 10, 3:00–5:00 pm.

As new members of the TFAA, these artists are eligible to lease or sublease studio space in the Torpedo Factory and to exhibit in the Associates Gallery. The jurors this year were Twig Murray, Allison Nance, and Zöe Charlton (2-D) and Robert Devers, Kevin Crowe, and Joan Dreyer (3-D).
