First Friday Art Walk & "Haunted" Opening at MEDIUM Art Center

MEDIUM Art Center will present its Haunted Art Show, a juried exhibition exploring the eerie, the playful, and the strange. The show opens Friday, Oct. 3, during the First Friday Art Walk, and runs through Nov. 1 at MEDIUM’s new downtown gallery, 110 S. School St.

Now in its fifth year, the October show has become one of MEDIUM’s most anticipated traditions. Each fall, the community looks forward to gathering at the gallery for artwork that embraces the season’s atmosphere of mystery and transformation.

This year’s Haunted Art Show showcases a diverse selection of artwork by local and regional artists. Visitors can expect a mix of paintings, sculptures, photographs, and mixed-media works.

This is more than a Halloween show. Haunted is about what we carry and what we can’t explain. It’s about using art to name the thing hiding under the bed. Dark art gives form to dread and lets us hold it at arm’s length. It can make the invisible visible, the taboo talkable. It’s also just a lot of fun to lean into the creepy stuff and see what happens.

Light refreshments will be served at the opening, with wine and beer available by donation.
The exhibition is free and open to the public.
Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., with extended hours on the First Friday of each month from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
