Visit our exhibition, In the Flowers by Hayley Sheldon and experience her exploration of the natural in relation to her personal life.

Hayley's work uses color, shape, and repetition to explore the coexistence of joy and sorrow, beauty and grief. Drawing from specific plants, flowers, and landscapes connected to different seasons of her life, she uses the natural world as a source of metaphor for experiences that are difficult to articulate. Come by and experience the reflection of an ongoing search for beauty, meaning, and tranquility while navigating the complexities of being human.

Free admission. Registration not required. Open to the public and all ages. Under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

Visit our exhibition, Chromatic Frequencies by Renee Phillips and experience her exploration of medium and color in person.

Working with latex paint, spray paint and acrylic polymers, Phillips approaches each piece as an open dialogue in material investigation. Through experimentation, these everyday materials are pushed beyond their conventional uses, revealing distinct textures specific to each color, from wave like ripples to deep fissures and pooling paint drips. Chromatic Frequencies invites viewers to slow down, look closely, and experience color as a living presence.

Free admission. Registration not required. Open to the public and all ages. Under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
