Explore four new exhibitions on view:
🦋 Deborah Davis: Drawn to Light (Smith Gallery)

🧵 Somé Louis & Hanna Taubenberger: Soft Remembering (First Floor Galleries)
A collaborative exhibition exploring memory, childhood, relationships, and time through fiber, sculpture, mixed media, video, and poetry. Featuring everything from dollhouses to gold leaf to embroidered works on paper.
🖋 McGuffey Life Drawing: Drawn Together (Second Floor Gallery North)
A celebration of the human form and the artists who gather weekly at McGuffey to practice figure drawing. This group exhibition features works created during live model sessions—ranging from quick sketches to sustained studies.
🎨 Associate Artists Exhibition (Associate Gallery)
Our vibrant Associate Artist community presents a new group show featuring a wide range of media and styles. Stop by to see what they’ve been working on!
