History of the Show 

The Shy, Novice, and Closeted Art Show was started 4 years ago by Bethel citizen Janet Willie to coincide with the larger Bethel Art Show on the Commons. It local artists who would like to show their work but aren't ready yet for a big outdoor art show a venue for displaying their work along with meeting other artists and art lovers.

It's great fun and features a huge variety of styles and media.
