From a pool of 322 applicants, 141 artists were chosen for the 2015 Occasion for the Arts, an annual art show on Merchants Square in downtown Williamsburg. Of the 141 artists chosen, only nine local artists (from Williamsburg and the surrounding area) were granted spaces. CNPC member Archie Fripp and CNPC founder and member Ken Conger will have booths showing and selling their wonderful photos.
