The Drawing Studio is preparing for its annual Small Wonders fundraiser art show for lovers of tiny art and the artists who create it.
That means if you're an artist living in Tucson, you can show your work. There are no entry fees and all styles and genres that fit within the size parameters will be accepted.Β
If you're an art lover, there will be lots of unique local art to choose from at affordable prices.Β
At last year's show, there were about 200 pieces of art on display in a variety of different media and subjects.
"Our hope is that this year we have even more," said Jessica Kranz, program director of The Drawing Studio. "Everything is under $200 and everything is tiny, so you can find places for it in your home. And, it's not juried, so all kinds of people can show their work."
When you buy a piece of art from the Small Wonders show, half of the money goes to the artist, and the other half goes towards more programming, Kranz said.

The studio is seeking submissions for the show.
