Four Seasons Gallery in Homewood, AL is hosting ARTreach for the Birmingham Art Association with an opening gala April 3rd, 2014 from 5-8 PM.

Art has been painted into the roots of the city and since 1908, the Birmingham Art Association has been there to guide the art movement along while supporting local artists.
