Q. What are the goals of 6x6x2015?
A. 6x6x2015 will be the eighth year of 6x6 exhibitions. Last year 6x6x2014 grew to include thousands of artworks from 65 different countries and every US State! This year we hope to reach deeper into the global art community, especially yours. This includes obtaining artwork from more national and international artists and celebrities. We would also like to have significant participation from all 12 of Rochester's sister cities. Every year 6x6 has grown and the consistently high caliber of artworks each year has been astounding. Help us make 6x6x2015 an amazing international expression of support for artists, arts institutions, creativity, and participation!

A. 6x6x2015 is RoCo's only fundraiser. Our fundraising goal is to sell 2,500 Artworks. Please visit the Online Gallery, find your favorites, click "Add to Cart" and support our thoughtful contemporary art programming!
