"Something Unexpected" Reception Brought a Crowd

CAA doesn't keep official records of crowd sizes at our art receptions, but we're pretty sure Something Unexpected set a record at its February 13th reception. Close to 70 people came to see new works by CAA members, meet the artists, talk and mingle in the generous Centre Concord gallery space.

Something Unexpected is a group show that focuses on surprises, otherworldly visions and mysteries. It's on view until April 10, 2026, so come by Centre Concord, Monday through Friday to check it out. As in all our exhibits, if you see something you can't live without, contact CAA at concordartassociation@yahoo.com and we'll put you in touch with the artist to make your art collecting dreams come true.

Centre Concord is located at 5298 Clayton Road, Concord. Open Monday - Friday, 10am to 4:30pm

The next CAA reception will be for Feeling Blue at Visit Concord: Friday, March 13, 4 to 6pm. Visit Concord is in Salvio Pacheco Square, downtown Concord: 2151 Salvio St., Suite T. We hope to see you there.
