The Wayne Art Center presented a Collectors’ Preview and Sale on Friday, May 10, 2024. Guests were the first to view and purchase more than 300 original paintings depicting local scenes. It was a splendid evening of fine art, delicious hors d’oeuvres, an open bar and live music before the exhibition opened to the public. Juror Jill Carver awarded $25,000 in cash prizes to the top winners during the evening’s award presentation.
