Each year, Salon holds a conference where decorative artists gather from all corners of the earth to paint , share techniques and present a panel of their work. The gatherings are held in various countries with this year being NYC!
The event was hosted by Arlene Mcloughlin and Jeanne S. Schnupp.
There is a theme for each Salon and participants interpret the theme in their panels. Art Deco was the theme for 2017 in New York.
