This year’s Autumn Art Festival has been another success for Mistlin Gallery and CCAA. The gala reception was well attended and our fundraising efforts rewarded. We’d like to thank all of the artists who entered, and congratulate prize winners. We’d also like to acknowledge our organizing committee, jurors and sponsors who make the show possible.
