              The exhibit’s name, Fx2, is a combination of the old designation for camera work, fx; while the 2 indicates that this is a second portion the area-wide Fall Festival exhibit. It is open to both amateurs and professionals alike.
              As the number of people in the area who enjoy working with cameras has increased for both professionals and amateurs, it become evident that these artists needed an exhibit focused on their work to collectively show off their talent.
              In addition, camera technology, options and education have all grown by leaps and bounds.
              The one thing that does not seem to change is the ability and imagination of the shooters, who must always be ready and attentive to capture that special image. Fx2 2020 is a wonderful presentation of imagination, nerves, determination and skill.
              Since the first show, the numbers and range of entries has continued to develop a loyal following for both photographers and the public.
              The Alleghany Highlands Arts and Crafts Center expressed appreciation to all the artists who responded to the call for entries, and the installation crew that worked diligently to check in work, sort and arrange it by categories, clean the glass, prepare the gallery guide and labels, and light the exhibit.
              For more information, call 862-4447, visit the center’s  website at highlandsartsandcraft.org or email them at ww.highlandsartsandcraft.org@gmail.com.
              They can also be found on Facebook.
              The Alleghany Highlands Arts and Crafts Center is supported by its members, contributors, volunteers, the town of Clifton Forge, the city of Covington, Alleghany County, The Alleghany Foundation, the Virginia Commission for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts.
