Spoke Art Gallery is proud debut our annual Summer Group Show, featuring a diverse range of local, national and international emerging artists in a salon-style exhibition. This August exhibition showcases a selective roster of varying mediums and styles found throughout the contemporary scene, with introductory works perfect for emerging and established collectors and fans.
