Here it is!!! A State of Being is a collection of works across several styles and media created by artists on the Visual Art Faculty of the Worcester Public Schools. WPS Visual Art Faculty have exhibited together more than ten times, generating a diverse collection of artworks year after year. State of Being marks the first time this group exhibit has been produced at ArtsWorcester. ArtsWorcester particularly welcomes the opportunity to honor and celebrate those that nurture the next generation of artists in our city. The teachers would like to thank the incredible staff at ArtsWorcester for their partnership and vision! We also want to thank our coordinator: Joe DeGregorio. We have featured his stained glass pieces first.
