Tributary refers to both the personal and social aspects of art. Just as individual streams of water form tributaries that flow into ever-larger bodies of water, individual artists form alliances that grow and contribute to society. As a sign of respect, these artists also often pay tribute to the legacies of those who have influenced and nourished them.
All artists exhibiting in Tributary appreciate the opportunity to share their original works of art and to acknowledge those artists who have come before them.
