midwest salon deux ∙
midwest salon is in its second year, aptly named midwest salon deux. Created in the style of the 1863 Salon des Refusés, we highlight works that were initially not selected for the previous calendar year’s exhibitions. To continue to create more opportunities to share work, midwest salon deux allows for greater visibility for our artists and community.
We want to thank our past jurors for their expertise and for taking on the difficult task of selecting the artworks for exhibition, and we want to thank you for being part of our vibrant community!
