Our shows challenge artists to develop their craft & attract local buyers. 

Lost Along the Way exhibit
May 19-June 30

Discarded as trash or perhaps just lost along the way as you walk the sidewalks, streets and, alleys of York.

The Parliament presents Lost Along the Way, a show of those street finds you've seen and photographed in your daily life.

Instagram tie-in: Join in on the fun ahead of and during the show by snapping your street finds and sharing them with us on social media using #ParliamentStreetFinds.
