SUMMARY:Form + Content Presents: Ellie Kingsbury "Some Body"
DESCRIPTION:Ellie Kingsbury\, “Coco Dupree”\, mixed media\, 23”w x 17”h x 3”d\, 2023 \nEllie Kingsbury has long studied cultural expectations of the body\, largely through photographic images of “ordinary” people.  She has started a new chapter of this work by photographing burlesque performers.  Removed from the stage\, set onto plain black backgrounds\, and printed on large panels of silk\, these bodies undulate\, ripple\, and transform\, summoning thoughts of spirit over skin.  She furthers the effect by utilizing physical dimension as well as the dimension of time and space. \nWhat do we share with these sequined\, glamorous performers?  Do we equate the burlesque community as just bodies on a stage\, or do we contemplate the person behind the costume?  Do we all put ourselves on stage from time to time?  Do burlesque performers feel limited by the same cultural expectations that we live with?  When we watch burlesque do we understand a difference between sexualizing a body and celebrating sensuality? \nWorking with these questions\, the artist reception will feature everyday (non-burlesque) performers who will interact with the silks\, and invite the audience to do the same. \nPublic Reception: Saturday\, September 23\, 6:00 – 8:30 pm \nInterpretive performance will start around 6:45\, after which the audience will be invited to interact with the work. \n“Some Body” will also be included in Twin Cities Art Week\nSeptember 27 – October 1.  Visit www.tcartweek.org for more info. \nGallery hours: Thursday\, Friday\, Saturday\, 12:00 noon – 6:00 pm and by appointment. \nAll events are free and open to the public. \nForm+Content Gallery\nWhitney Square Building\, 210 North Second Street\, Suite 104\, Minneapolis\, MN 55401\nOne block north of Washington Avenue North and two blocks west of East Hennepin Avenue.\nParking is available on the street (metered) and in neighborhood parking ramps.

SUMMARY:Traffic Zone Reception: Jodi Reeb
DESCRIPTION:A Different View \nAn exhibition of mixed-media paintings by Jodi Reeb. \nJodi Reeb\, Solitude\, Mixed media\, 12 x 12 in. \nSeptember 18 – October 20\, 2023 \nGallery Hours: Monday – Friday\, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm \nFree and open to the public. \n  \nPublic Reception \nSaturday\, October 14\, 2023\, 6:00 – 8:00 pm (revised date) \nLight refreshments will be served. \nFree and open to the public. \nhttps://www.trafficzoneart.com/ \ntrafficzoneart@gmail.com \n \nJodi Reeb\, At Dawn\, Mixed media\, 8 x 10 in. \nDescription \nTraffic Zone Gallery presents A Different View\, an exhibition of mixed-media paintings using photographs of pollinator-friendly plants taken at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum “from the bee’s perspective”. These paintings are created by embedding photographs printed on tissue paper in the wax as collage. Artist Jodi Reeb developed this new body of artwork after researching how to support the pollinator/bee species in Minnesota. \nReeb has been painting with encaustic paint (molten beeswax\, pigment and resin) for over 15 years. These mixed-media works have the luminosity of beeswax while maintaining the graphic nature of photography. It was natural for Reeb to partner with the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum as a sanctuary for bees with several hives\, acres of diverse pollinator habitat and an outreach education program partnered with the University of Minnesota. \nTo expand on this series\, the artist has also included landscape images that are a superimposition of double exposures taken on film to create a single image and printed on tissue paper.  These photos were taken at the Prairie Wetlands Center near Fergus Falls\, Minnesota\, during a Hinge Arts Residency awarded through Springboard for the Arts. \nArtist Statement \nWorking with beeswax as my primary painting medium has me very concerned about the recent decline of the pollinator population. Modern encaustic is primarily composed of 85% natural wax\, produced by honeybees. There are over 400 species of native bees in Minnesota and pollinators are declining at alarming rates due to lack of habitat and pesticide use. This installation of paintings is a way to celebrate our region’s unique pollinator diversity and our individual and collective responsibility to ensure that future generations get to experience fields of wildflowers abuzz with pollinators. \n \nJodi Reeb\, Transcendence\, Mixed media \nArtist Biography \nJodi Reeb lives in Minneapolis\, Minnesota creating art for over 27 years as a full-time artist.  She is the recipient of the 2021 Artist’s Initiative Grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board. In 2021\, she was chosen for the Hinge Arts Residency program through Springboard for the Arts in Minnesota. Her work has been shown nationally\, receiving numerous awards and is in many private and corporate collections nationally.  She received a Bachelor’s degree from the Minneapolis College of Art & Design where she instructed printmaking in the Continuing Studies program for over 9 years.  Reeb creates her mixed-media paintings and sculptures in the co-op studio at the Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art.  She is a Golden Paint Artist Educator as well as an R & F Paint Core Artist teaching monthly workshops in acrylic and encaustic paint. \n  \nMission Statement \nTraffic Zone Gallery is operated by Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art. TZCVA supports the work of mid-career professional artists with high-quality\, affordable studios and the engagement of audiences with gallery exhibitions\, open studio events\, art classes and workshops. \n—\n \nTraffic Zone Gallery\nTraffic Zone Center for Visual Art\n250 3rd Avenue North\, Minneapolis\, MN 55401\nhttps://www.trafficzoneart.com\ntrafficzoneart@gmail.com

Media: medical eye patches\,\nthread\, paper roll\, vinyl wall text \nStatement: A screen of 504 eye patches sewn together with black thread bisects the gallery wall into two sections. On each side of the curtain\, part of a sentence is readable. The words are translated in English on the left\, and in the original Persian (Farsi) on the right. The black screen of eye patches partially obscures the rest of the text underneath\, while at the same time reveals blurred images of Iranians shot in the eye during the protests of the last year. One of the many Iranians wounded in the last year\, was a young law student from the southern city of Bandar Abbas\, Iran: Ghazal Ranjkesh. Ghazal was a 21-year-old protestor\, shot in the right eye on September 20\, 2022. Her story is one of many hundreds of protestors that have been wounded in this manner. The common perception is that targeting the eyes\, breasts and buttocks of female protestors in particular\, is intentional. The eyes are central to the idea of beauty in Iran\, and have a mythical status in Persian culture. To target them is to strike at the core of femininity\, to mutilate the essence of womanhood. I chose this event because I’m an Iranian woman. Violence to one woman’s body\, is violence to all. \nBiography: Katayoun Amjadi is an Iranian-born\, Minneapolis-based artist\, educator\, and independent curator. In her work\, she often considers the sociopolitical systems that shape our perceptions of Self and Other\, such as language\, religion\, gender\, politics\, and nationalist ideologies. Amjadi blurs these boundaries and creates an off-balance\, hybrid style that is slightly acerbic and a little bit tongue-in-cheek. Amjadi holds an MFA in ceramics and sculpture from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and currently teaches in the Art Department at Normandale Community College in Bloomington\, MN. She also teaches as a visiting lecturer at the Minneapolis College of Art & Design and the University of Minnesota. Her work has been exhibited in group and solo exhibitions nationally and internationally\, including Minnesota Museum of American Art\, St. Paul; Rochester Art Center; Weisman Art Museum\, Minneapolis; Des Moines Art Center; Beijing Film Academy\, China; Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste Karlsruhe\, Germany; and Haftsamar Gallery\, Tehran. Selected fellowships include MCAD-Jerome Emerging Artist and Artist Initiative Grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board. Amjadi co-runs a studio arts building and maintains a small ceramics business in the Q.arma Building in the northeast Minneapolis art district. \nLinda Brooks \n\nDetail of installation: Tree of Life Synagogue\nMassacre Memorial\, Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania\,\nOctober 27\, 2018\, Cheshvan 18\, 5779. Media:\nadhesive-backed fabric\, aqueous inkjet photograph\,\npine-framed archival pigment prints\, video projection \nStatement: The premeditated murder of eleven Jewish worshipers belonging to three congregations that found their spiritual home at the Tree of Life Synagogue filled me with sorrow and frustration. As a Jewish person on alert\, every incident of gun violence impacts me and contributes to a public trauma of terrorism in our country. This horrific act of violence and others like it proclaim a worsening tragic connection to histories of malicious\, ongoing hate crimes against Jews and other marginalized people. As a memorial to the Jewish victims\, the imagery references the inherent meanings of the tree of life in Judaism. It symbolizes the cycles of life\, death\, rebirth\, and connections to heritage and history. The tree of life is often used to refer to the sacred Hebrew text within the Torah. The Torah is a source of Jewish origins\, laws\, stories\, and guidance for being a good person. A life-affirming symbol\, the tree of life is commonly embraced by many cultures and religions. Mother\, enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation\, scientist\, Professor Robin Wall Kimmerer in her book Braiding Sweetgrass asserts\, “Old-growth cultures\, like old-growth forests\, have not been exterminated.” \nBiography: The personal content of Brooks’ photographic practice is connected to larger cultural contexts. Individuals\, scenarios\, or objects are situated within relationships\, experiences\, and external circumstances. Over more than 40 years\, she has worked as an artist\, teacher\, curator\, and parent in the Twin Cities. She was a Hermitage Fellow for 2018-2020. Artist fellowships have been granted from the NEA\, Rimon: The Minnesota Jewish Arts Council\, Minnesota State Arts Board\, and the McKnight Foundation. Her photographs have been included in more than 80 group exhibitions including Pier 24\, San Francisco; Aperture\, NYC; Hallwalls\, Buffalo\, NY; and the 5th Vienna Biennale\, Austria. More than a dozen venues including Walker Art Center; the Cultural Center\, Chicago; and the Sabes Jewish Community Center\, MN\, have installed solo exhibitions. Photographs are in the collections of The Bibliothèque Nationale de France\, Minnesota Historical Society\, George Eastman Museum\, and The Brooklyn Museum. Young Voices: photographs of/by girls/teens/women\, and the Jerome Hill Centennial Photography Exhibition 2005 are among the shows Brooks has curated. Images from between the birthdays are included in Reframings: New American Feminist Photographies. PROXIMITIES art\, education\, activism was published by TC Photo in late 2020. \n  \nBetsy Dollar \n\nDetail of installation: Dancing the Year Away\,\nLunar New Year Tragedy\, The Star Ballroom\nin Monterey Park\, California\, during the Lunar\nNew Year Celebration\, January 21\, 2023.\nMedia: handmade paper \nStatement: On the evening of January 21\, 2023\, during the Lunar New Year Festivities in Monterey Park\, California\, a man entered the Star Ballroom and opened fire. He shot twenty dancers; eleven died\, nine survived. The shooter fled to the Lai Lai Ballroom and Studio in Alhambra\, north of Monterey Park where he was disarmed in a struggle at the door and fled. He was later discovered in his van where he took his own life. The shooter\, Huu Can Tran\, is the oldest mass shooter on record. He was Vietnamese. All the victims of the shooting were Chinese\, Taiwanese\, Vietnamese or Filipino\, over the age of 55\, most in their 60s and 70s. All were passionate about ballroom dancing. The shooter\, a ballroom dancer himself\, chose this ballroom as his target. He killed himself before any motivations could be found or questions could be answered. For me\, this tragedy is tempered by the fact that these people were struck down doing something they loved. They all lived long\, rich lives and left legacies of love and respect. As a paper artist it seems fitting to create a memorial of paper scrolls since their roots are in the Asian tradition. \nBiography: Betsy Dollar grew up in a family of artists in the Chicago area. After high school she attended Minneapolis College of Art & Design for two years. Ultimately\, she moved to Boulder\, Colorado\, where she completed both her BFA and MFA in printmaking and papermaking at the University of Colorado\, Boulder. She stayed in Boulder where she had an audio-visual production company\, taught art at every level\, and worked as both a commercial and fine artist. In 2006 she left Boulder and returned to Minnesota\, where she spent four years working as an artist\, curating exhibitions\, and teaching. In 2009 Betsy returned to Illinois to become the Executive Director of the Springfield Art Association. Betsy works primarily in handmade paper\, printmaking\, book arts\, and with installations that are walk-through books made from her handmade papers. Her work is in both private and public collections in the United States. \nCory Favre \n\nDetail of installation: Land of the Free\, Homeroom\nof the Brave; Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting\,\nNewtown\, Connecticut\, December 14\, 2012.\nMixed media installation \nStatement: In less than five minutes on the morning of December 14\, 2012\, Adam Lanza entered the doors of Sandy Hook Elementary and murdered 20 students and six faculty members after first shooting his mother in the head while in her bed. Lanza died by suicide before police entered the building. As a mother of three\, my oldest being in first grade (the same age as these children were at the time of their deaths)\, I am acutely aware of all the things that could come to harm them. Sending them off to school should not be on that list. It should be a safe place. I’m using recognizable imagery and everyday school items as a way to connect the horrific deaths of these children to what we put our children through currently\, and what we expect them to process and deal with even when no gun is present. Firearm deaths are the number one cause of death in children in the United States as of 2020. This should be shocking to everyone\, every single person\, who purports to care about the wellbeing and safety of children. Yet\, no significant legislation has been passed. We aren’t supposed to politicize these moments. \nBiography: Cory Favre is a visual artist living and working in Roseville\, Minnesota. She has a bachelor’s degree from Ball State University with focuses in Studio Art and Interior Design and is an alumna of the Women’s Art Institute Studio Intensive in 2019. She has served on the Board of Directors for the Women’s Art Resources of Minnesota\, has been a long-time member of the Northeast Minneapolis Artists Association and North Suburban Center for the Arts. She has exhibited work both locally and regionally and has been the recipient of two Minnesota State Arts Board Grants as well as an Artist Initiative Grant in 2020 for her White Knuckled Project and a Creative Support Grant in 2022 for her series on motherhood called The Thick of It. Favre works  primarily in drawing and oil painting\, but has recently been experimenting with felt and embroidery in her work. Inspired by social justice issues and politics\, particularly those issues facing women\, she explores uncomfortable topics through bright\, vibrant and fun imagery\, using these techniques to draw the viewer into the conversation. Creating work this way\, she is able to make these topics approachable and gives people a safe place to explore and think on their own experiences. \nCarolyn Halliday \n\nDetail of installation: Mourning Cloths: Hate Crime\nat Tops Friendly Market\, Buffalo\, NY\, May 14\, 2022.\nMedia: handstiching on hand-made substrates of animal\nmembrane and used dryer sheets; cast animal membrane \n  \nStatement: My ongoing body of work\, Mourning Cloths\, began with the unexpected death of my brother. I was compelled to intuitively embroider random stitching on substrates I made of animal membrane. My use of animal membrane plays homage to the many early communities in the world that have devised some form of parchment from animal skin. I stitched with black thread to symbolize death and mourning. Additionally\, after starting this work\, I discovered through research that for centuries\, women in the United States have used embroidery to mark mourning. This historic connection with others who embroidered as a way to mourn\, grounds my commitment to textile tradition. My sensitivity to racism and individual oppression formed the basis for my choice of memorializing the hate crime at the ironically named Tops Friendly Market mass shooting. In addition to the black silk threads that I use on other mourning cloths\, I have incorporated red threads.  On the substrates I also incorporated soil pigments to reference dried blood. I repurposed the red threads that I removed from a swastika flag that hung in Cherbourg\, France\, during the WWII Nazi occupation. My father-in-law removed the flag on the day his army troop liberated the town. \nBiography: Carolyn Halliday is a contemporary visual artist grounded in textile traditions. Ecological/evolutionary/biological concerns and her relationship with nature inform much of her work. Her art has been exhibited for over two decades nationally and internationally. In the past three years her work has traveled to New York City\, Miami\, Madrid\, Boston area\, Arizona and Korea. Her work is in the collection of the Minnesota Historical Society and the Weisman Art Museum. She has received a Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative Grant and Textile Center’s Spun Gold Award for a lifetime commitment to textile art and Textile Center. She was appointed the first member and Chair of the National Artists Advisory Council for Textile Center. Her art has been featured on MN Originals and in a variety of publications. For three years she has been awarded merit-based artist residencies at Vermont Studio Center. She is a 2023 Project Space recipient from the Kolman Reeb Gallery. \nTim Harding with Nina Martine Robinson \n\nDetail of installation: Stand Your Ground: Trayvon\nMartin Murder\, Stanford\, Florida\, February 26\, 2012.\nMedia: cotton knit sweatshirt fleece with rayon\nembroidery thread \nStatement: On the evening of February 26\, 2012\, a 17-year-old\, black male was walking home from a neighborhood convenience store\, having purchased a box of Skittles. After a brief confrontation with a neighborhood watch volunteer\, Trayvon Martin was killed with a close-range gunshot to his chest. The white\, male shooter\, George Zimmerman\, was eventually acquitted of the murder based on Florida’s Stand-Your-Ground Law. That evening Mr. Martin was wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt with the hood up.  With the ensuing national news coverage\, the “hoodie” became an iconic symbol of the young\, black thug racial stereotype. A hoodie wearer\, if black\, could then become a target for preemptive gun violence. What was particularly alarming to me and so many others\, above and beyond the horrific event claiming the life of an innocent teenager\, was the legal sanction in Florida criminal codes that condoned the action Zimmerman took. The state’s Stand-Your-Ground Law actually creates an incentive to shoot first when encountering any situation where one\, however subjectively\, feels some vague sense of a threat. The NRA gun lobby\, as part of its aggressive misinterpretation of the Second Amendment\, has continued to promote these laws throughout the United States. \nBiography: Tim Harding earned a BA with a Studio Arts major in 1973 at Hamline University with additional coursework at the University of Minnesota\, Minneapolis College of Art & Design\, and Macalester College. In1975 he established a silk screen print textile studio\, Colorfield Fabrics. In 1983 he began a decades-long collaboration with his spouse/partner\, Kathleen Harding\, as Harding Design Studio\, in the art-to-wear movement. His current studio practice\, Tim Harding Studio\, is focused on large-scale commissioned textile art wall pieces. He has received visual arts fellowships from the Minnesota State Arts Board\, Arts Midwest\, and the NEA. Harding’s work is represented in numerous museum and corporate collections. \nNina Martine Robinson is Harding’s studio manager. In her own artistic practice\, Robinson creates site-specific textile installations utilizing discarded clothing to highlight her exploration into neurodiversity. \nPatricia Olson \n\nDetail of installation: The Montréal Massacre Memorial\,\nMontréal\, Québec\, Canada\, December 6\, 1989\,\nMedia: oil on panel paintings with a shelf of ceramic bowls\nholding glassine envelopes of morning glory seeds \nStatement: On December 6\, 1989\, a man with a rifle walked into a classroom at the Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal. He divided the women from the men\, released the men\, and shot six women there. He prowled the building\, searching out women\, ultimately killing 14 women and wounding 12 other people before he committed suicide. He was heard to say\, ”You’re all a bunch of feminists!” This particular tragedy affected me deeply. I wondered\, in my rage: What could I do? The next year\, on the first anniversary of what became known as the Montreal Massacre\, I made 14 cards\, one for each of the women killed\, and mailed them to 14 people as a remembrance. I also sent morning glory seeds\, asking the recipients to plant them in the spring as an act of renewal. On each anniversary through 1999\, I made a memorial piece for each of the 14 women killed in Montreal and mailed them. In this version of the Montreal Massacre Memorial\, I invite you to remember the lives and deaths of these 14 young women. If you are so moved\, please take an envelope with morning glory seeds and plant them this spring as an act of remembrance and renewal. \nBiography: Patricia Olson earned a BA in studio art “with distinction” at Macalester College in St. Paul. She received an MFA in Visual Studies from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. She is a founding member of WARM\, the Women’s Art Registry of Minnesota. Exhibitions include Art Speaks\, a 170-year overview of Minnesota art and artists at the Minnesota History Center (2022); The House We Built: Feminist Art Then and Now at the Katherine E. Nash Gallery\, University of Minnesota (2013). Her war memorial and protest piece\, Operation Mopping Up\, was purchased by the Minnesota Museum of American Art in 2005. Olson’s work is in the permanent collections of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts\, Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum at the University of Minnesota\, Minnesota Museum of American Art\, St. Catherine University\, Minnesota Historical Society and Walker Art Center. Olson is Professor Emerita at St. Catherine University. Beginning in 1999\, she taught\, with Elizabeth Erickson\, the Women’s Art Institute\, a summer intensive course for advanced women artists. In 2009 and in 2014\, she and Elizabeth Erickson were honored as Changemakers by the Minnesota Women’s Press for their work with the Women’s Art Institute. Olson is currently a member of Form+Content Gallery in downtown Minneapolis. \nKristina Fjellman\nStatement: Performance art asks the viewer to engage with artwork and concepts in a different way – instead of a static object in your space\, you are confronted with another person. It’s a fleeting\, collectively shared moment that cannot be duplicated or recreated no matter the similar components. In our current world where so much is recorded and on demand\, it’s these ephemeral elements that I find special and important in performance. Over the years\, gun violence has become commonplace in our daily lives. Despite the horrific act\, we sigh and shake our heads\, and then move on with our day. But the fabric of our society has still been torn.  This performance is about acknowledging that this subject matter is difficult\, but sharing the moment with others can bring us together\, help us heal\, and (hopefully) work to make change. \nBiography: Kristina Fjellman is a visual artist and performer and is drawn to creative projects that combine both of these passions. She is the co-founding member of the theater troupe\, The Winding Sheet Outfit\, and an ensemble member of Sandbox Theatre. She is a graduate of the College of St. Catherine with a MAED in Art and Theater Education\, has exhibited her sculpture in venues around the Midwest and Twin Cities\, and was a recipient of a Jerome Fiber Art Project Grant for 2010-2011 at the Minnesota Textile Center. \nForm+Content Mission Statement\nForm+Content Gallery nurtures diverse artistic practice and thoughtful dialogue. We value art as a catalyst for critical thinking. We value integrity and the artistic process. We aspire to link personal expression to broader social contexts. Form+Content Gallery is dedicated to moving the definitions and practice of culture forward in new and lively ways.

SUMMARY:Permutations at Form+Content Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Permutations: Print works by Beth Dorsey\, Gwen Partin\, Ingrid Restemayer\, Patty Scott\, and Dean Trisko \n \nForm+Content Gallery and five printmakers from the Northrup King Building present an exhibit of hand-pulled prints\nand mixed media artworks. \nExhibiting Artists\nBeth Dorsey\nGwen Partin\nIngrid Restemayer\nPatty Scott\nDean Trisko \nThese five printmakers are all seasoned artists\, knowledgeable in print processes as well as other fine art mediums. They have all shared the same studio building for many years\, yet only recently came together to share resources and to learn each others varied uses of printmaking. All are currently using printmaking as a mode of furthering their creative voices. \nBeth Dorsey is attracted to everyday objects with repeatable patterns. Venetian blinds\, windows\, and corrugated material in photogravure prints form the foundation of her imagery. Dorsey uses the ability to repeat an image to build singular compositions. Then through experimentation\, she adds layers\, sometime plaiting them to change and increase complexity and interest. \nGwen Partin works in drawing\, printmaking and book arts. Her focus comes from geometric and natural shapes and textures as well as from textiles with their systems of woven\, tiled or tessellated patterns. Partin prints in monotype\, with cut paper stencils\, relief blocks and collagraphs making a lexicon of parts that get collaged back together. Her textural 2-d works embody a unique balance of control and serendipity. \nIngrid Restemayer is a printmaker and fiber artist. Her work has a hint of storytelling with the inclusion of dry-point intaglio images as pseudo-illustrations when paired with shapes formed from hand-embroidery. Restemayer is interested in sustainable tactics in art creation. She uses discarded plastics for her printing plates. While printmaking is a form of mechanization\, she enhances the repetitive imagery with hand-sewing shapes that change the meaning of the overall image. \nPatty Scott works solely on paper. Part of an international community of urban sketchers\, her background in printmaking includes lithography\, etching\, monoprint and linocuts. Her current linocut images convey tension and feelings of confinement. Scott’s de-emphasis of line has her relying on large areas of flat color. She enacts a type of anthropomorphizing of the abstract. \nDean Trisko makes abstract art—drawings\, paintings\, and prints. Abstraction allows his pursuit of beauty without demanding narrative or specific reference. Trisko is often inspired by landscapes – observed then reduced\, exaggerated and edited until most representation is gone. Intaglio print methods spark ideas by allowing Trisko to rearrange imagery and free him to try different ways of printing plates. \nPermutations is a chance to see new work by accomplished artists who share a medium that\, in itself\, has several possible variations. \nMay 23 – June 29\, 2024 \nOpening Reception|\nSaturday\, May 25  3:00 – 6:00 pm \nFree and open to the public \n  \nArtist’s Talk \nA panel discussion featuring all five artists will be held in the gallery in June.
