Once a year, the Business Council for the Arts inspires office workers to put down their staplers and pick up their paintbrushes. Workplaces across the metroplex hold in-house art competitions for their employees over the summer. The winning creations from each company are displayed in an annual art exhibit. This year’s exhibit, appropriately titled “On My Own Time,” goes up at NorthPark Center September 24. See it for free through October 4. Click here to learn more.
