On My Own Time

For Another Year !

What is On My Own Time? On My Own Time is an in-house art show featuring artwork that your employees have created “on their own time.” This is a wonderful opportunity to express encouragement and appreciation of employees; in return, offering an opportunity for employees to take pride in their accomplishments.  Artists of all media are encouraged to participate to display their diverse talents.  Each company will be judged in-house, with company winners having their works exhibited and judged in a City Wide Show open to the public.   The Cultural Council of Victoria is pleased to celebrate our 24th year honoring the artist the workforce!  Plan to join us in 2010.

Best of Show
