THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE 72ND ANNUAL RANGE ART SHOW & ART MARKET!

Thank you to everyone who visited the Range Art Show! We welcomed an amazing number of guests each day and were delighted by the community’s enthusiasm for the arts.

Special thanks to the artists who participated in the Art Show, Art Market and Youth Art Show. We were especially impressed by the quality of the youth and adult entries. Your creativity makes this event special and has helped it grow into a favorite annual tradition.

We are deeply grateful to our Range Art members and volunteers for their time and hard work before, during and after the show. This event would not be possible without them.

Our Artist Reception featured wonderful live music by Roy Eli Brown, refreshments and delicious goodies.

The raffle was another success, thanks to generous artist donations. Welcome Desk volunteers kept things running smoothly, while artist demonstrations provided engaging, educational experiences for visitors.

We also thank our sponsors and grant supporters, the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and Michigan Arts & Culture Council (MACC). Their funding helped provide new art show stands and a hanging hardware system that beautifully showcased the artwork and refreshed the show’s appearance.

We are always looking for new members, whether you are an artist or an art enthusiast who would simply like to volunteer. Learn more online at RangeArt.org.

Thank you to our artists, youth artists, volunteers, sponsors, members and every visitor. You made the 72nd Annual Range Art Show & Art Market a tremendous success!

PLUS! Range Art won the Audience Choice Award for our group entry Woodland Fairy Houses! Thanks for voting!

Another busy and wonderful day at Range Art’s 72nd Annual Art Show & Art Market! 🎨

We welcomed local residents, art enthusiasts, and visitors who stopped in to browse, visit, and chat with us. But today we had some extra fun with our volunteers and artists who came by just to enjoy the show—even some who didn’t have artwork entered this year!

Our Youth Art Show has grown, our Photography section has grown, and so has the incredible pool of talent on display. There are so many things here to inspire you!

🎟️ And don’t miss the raffle! Our raffle table is filled with wonderful, quality handmade pieces, and you could win something special for just $1 a chance!

And wait until you see what award-winning artist Terry Hudson donated to the raffle! It is incredible—a magnificent large artwork that would make a statement in an office, restaurant, bar, hospital, college, or a home with a large vertical space. You really have to see it!

It’s your LAST DAY to see the 72nd Annual Range Art Show & Art Market!
