What is Mélange?

Mélange is our small group show in Circle Gallery to say thank you to our Members for their support of MFA throughout the year. Eligible Members’ names will be drawn randomly for the chance to participate. We have two different two week shows each year in March to thank our fantastic artists.

 

How Do I Qualify?

Each eligible artist must fulfill all of the following criteria during the previous calendar year (Jan 1 – Dec 31, 2025) to be eligible to participate in the upcoming year’s (2026) Mélange exhibition. The four criteria include:
