100 Miles showcases the diversity and quality of regional art and celebrate the artistic talent of artists working in a variety of media. One hundred and eight works of art by 101 emerging and established contemporary artists living within 100 miles of Williamsport, Pennsylvania are included.

The exhibition was juried by artist Elizabeth Gourlay. She wrote: "I tried to be as inclusive as possible to show the broad range of media...and to capture some of the wide range of voices coming forward from regional Pennsylvania. I see this exhibition as a microcosm of the art world at large, and of our whole culture."
