Reminder from Co Chairs of KIFA's 58th Annual Open Judged Art Show MaryAnn Buckley and Maureen Wheatley: Please send your entry forms in ahead with a postmark date of this Wednesday April 21th.

Also a reminder that all hanging artwork must have wire on the back to hang, preferably with "D" rings that won't pull out like eye hooks do.
