4th annual Community Exhibition "Absurdity"

The theme for the 2026 community exhibition invites artists to explore the space between logic and lunacy. “Absurdity” exposes the tension between truth and disbelief, clarity and confusion. Like a funhouse mirror, the distortion of reality can be at times silly and unsettling. This exhibition encourages artists to consider how absurdity can derail genuine intentions, inspire laughter in lightheartedness, and compel strangers to come together to cope, connect, and endure. Beneath its contradictions lies a levity, a reminder that even in chaos, there is room for solidarity, play, and shared understanding.

Join us for an opening reception on Friday, March 27th from 6:30-9pm for light refreshments and first access to the exhibition.  All artwork is for sale unless otherwise indicated.
