FRESH: Soft Offerings | Juried Exhibition
Artists explore the concept of “radical softness” as a form of resistance in this iteration of the annual juried exhibition. Envisioned by curators Abby Cipar and Julie Polsinelli, the exhibition reflects vulnerability, compassion, open minds, and love in an act of defiance against oppressive systems. The diverse range of tactile and conceptual forms of care on view invite audiences into a shared space of emotional resonance.

Paperland | Mark Jaroszewski
The black-and-white mixed media drawings in Paperland are reminiscent of children’s book illustrations: Sometimes dark and frightening and at other times light-hearted and whimsical. Mark Jaroszewski’s drawings help the artist navigate mental illness by providing a channel to communicate his sometimes-unusual spectrum of thoughts and feelings. The work takes inspiration from film, television programs, video games, and street graffiti, and simultaneously gives life to his own imaginary world.

Over, Under, Sideways, Down | Robert Wright
Through collage, painting, and composition in two dimensions, Robert Wright creates an abstracted world of human energy and andromorphic meaning. The results are asemic calligraphy driven by figurative gesture of beauty, grace, strength, balance, and rhythm. With dance as the primary source for the work, human movement has become a reflection of unique identity to the artist.

Milestones & Roadside Attractions | Group Exhibition
This exhibition showcases four cross-generational ceramic artists PJ Hargraves, Drew Ippoliti, Morgan Jones, and Kayla Weinman who serve as catalysts for each other’s stories and expressions. Together, they explore the potential of the medium and their distinct points of view. Each artist looks at the aesthetic beauty and humor of ceramics, while each work represents a feat of gravity and an opportunity to laugh at the absurdity of building in mud.
