We have placed all of the jpgs we had on the web for all to see before the show comes down. There is no sequence. It will probably be in alpha order  based on name of files.

For the fifth year, The Griffin Museum has invited all of its current members to exhibit in the Winter Solstice Exhibition. From across the world, artists enter one piece to be on display for December 2017. Photographs will be presented in the Main Gallery of the Griffin and display a spectrum of genres and processes. The opening reception is Thursday, December 7, 2017 from 7-8:30 PM. Sales are encouraged and many artists have donated the proceeds back to the Griffin.
