ArtsEtc is a small surface-design artmakers group with members throughout Volusia County. Members’ interests include art quilting, traditional quilting, collage, painting and mixed media. The works that will be displayed in City Hall include a mixture of these mediums. Viewers will discover works depicting seascapes, underwater images and abstract representations of water.
