We are excited to present ALL NEW artwork by our 30+ Regional Artists! We can’t wait to share our latest exhibit of new paintings, hand-pulled prints, sculpture, jewelry and ceramic work by our fabulous artists!
The exhibit features photography by Kathryn Coers Rossman in which the artist engages political surrealism as a means to reflect on civil discourse and civic identity.
The Disappointed House is a collection of works by local artist Bethany Habegger that looks at the home in relation to the human body and how our personal spaces can reflect our physical and mental forms.
