Back by popular demand — and starting earlier than ever — Spa Fine Art’s Annual Small Works Show returns this November with a fresh and festive collection of original artwork, all 11x14 inches or smaller. Opening November 7, well ahead of Black Friday, this year’s show gives art lovers and holiday shoppers even more time to explore and collect.
The exhibition will feature hundreds of small-scale works, each priced at $500 or less, created by a dynamic mix of established and emerging artists. Expect a wide variety of styles, mediums, and subjects — all beautifully framed and ready to hang. Whether you’re shopping for a thoughtful gift, starting your collection, or just looking for something special, this show is filled with meaningful pieces in perfectly giftable sizes.
On view through the end of the year, the Small Works Show offers something for every collector — from the casual browser to the seasoned art lover.
