This December, SLAC turns 16, and we’re throwing a party the only way we know how--with art, love, and community.
We want to celebrate the thing that’s kept us going through it all: Each other.
Our “Sweet 16” anniversary show, “Together,” is all about what connects us: the late-night brainstorming sessions, the unplanned collaborations, the shared rides to drop-offs, the coordinated art pick-ups for friends, the shared studio nights, day outings, and game night hangs, and the way we somehow keep showing up for each other, year after year. It’s a love letter to the messy, magical, artful family we’ve built. 💜
We want this show to be filled to the brim with joy, camaraderie, and connection. And love. And all of the things that unite us and bring us closer together.
This show is all about us. Let’s make something beautiful and meaningful—together.

✨ Bonus Magic:
For your third or fourth piece, or all four, if the stars align, we encourage you to collaborate with another artist. We've done collaboration shows in the past and they were a big hit and a lot of fun. Let your styles collide, blend your voices, or just have fun making something together. Let this show literally bring us together.
Let’s make this a night (and a show) full of hugs, bonding, dancing, and good stories…sorry, I’m getting mushy!! But really, let’s bring the kind of art that reminds us why we do this in the first place.
We can’t wait to celebrate together.
❤️,
Your SLAC Family
