September First Friday Featuring Jan Hyde

Join us on First Friday, September 5th from 6-10pm for the opening reception of "Finding the Narrative" by Jan Hyde in our Main Gallery.
"My work is a dialogue between the seen and unseen—deeply inspired by both the natural world and my internal landscape." - Jan Hyde
The works in this collection are intentionally left untitled, inviting the viewer to engage without the influence of a fixed narrative. This approach allows for a more personal and unrestricted interpretation, encouraging a unique connection to each piece.
As Picasso once suggested, titling a work can impose explanation, whereas leaving it untitled lets the artwork speak for itself. My hope is that each viewer finds their own emotional or intellectual resonance—guided not by labels, but by their own experience of the art.

In our Lower Level Gallery, 10 artists are featured in the “Bridging Form & Figure” group show. This exhibition invites you to explore the dialogue between the human presence and the spaces we inhabit and create. The show delves into how artists interpret the human form- its inherent structures, emotions, and narratives- or the built environments that shape our lives- from the defining presence of architectural structures to the quiet solitude of an interior.
Featured Artists: Gentry Amstutz, Natalie Avondet, Landon Enlow, Jared Farouki, Teresa Fry, Mark Jackson, Jesus Martinez, Valerie Rippey, Bryan Sanders, Shaza Umran
