cWOW's annual Metro Show is one of the oldest and most respected juried small works exhibitions in the metro region. "Metro" originally referred to our tradition of moving the show by rail to its many host cities. Today, we use all forms of transportation, while maintaining our original commitment to bring challenging contemporary art into people's everyday lives.
