When the Veil Thins, is a group exhibition curated by artist Tofer Chin and mindfulness educator and writer Mari Orkenyi. This exhibition features a selection of works in painting, sculpture, photography, textiles, and film, exploring the relationship between art-making and the psyche, including memories, traumas, and experiences.

The exhibition features work by Amir H. Fallah, Analia Saban, Aryana Minai, Jamal Gunn Becker, Mia Weiner, Mike Nesbit, Molly Haynes, Shaniqwa Jarvis, Thomas Linder, and Todd Tourso. Focusing on materiality, process, absence, presence, and the relationship with the unconscious, When The Veil Thins seeks to illuminate the multifaceted ways in which artists grapple with personal and collective experiences, ultimately finding avenues of expression and healing through art-making.

The exhibition will be on view until February 9, 2025.

is a cultural and creative complex fostering the intersection of contemporary art, wellness, and community impact.

We are driven by the belief that culture shifts consciousness. Culture provides a communal context to reexamine and ultimately better ourselves, our purpose, and our communities.

Our approach is holistic and inclusive. Operating as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we offer contemporary art exhibitions and immersive experiences, classes and workshops in the healing arts, performances, dining, and spaces to wander and reflect – all in an effort to promote connection, belonging, curiosity, and growth.
