Current Exhibition:
We are pleased to present our exhibition, Postcards from Paradise: Wish You Were Here, featuring more than 30 paintings of the varied places our artists visited. These little gems function as snapshots of a moment the artist wished to capture, ones that could be found on a postcard from the area conveying the nostalgic sentiment "I wish you were here." Postcards from Paradise will be viewable online and in the gallery July 20 - August 31, 2019.
