CALL FOR ARTWORK FROM PAO ARTISTS:

Last Call: Parliament Arts Organization Exhibition

DreamWrights’ next gallery exhibit pays tribute to 13 years of Parliament Arts Organization’s advocacy for the talented and overlooked creatives of York. We asked those very artists the PAO served to submit their work for this farewell exhibition. This month long showcase will coincide with DreamWrights’ production of the Pulitzer prize winning play “Sweat” by Lynn Nottage and directed by long time POA contributor Cal Weary.
