BEING HUMAN

Opening Saturday, February 14th, from 1PM - 3PM
On view through Sunday, March 8th
Join us for the opening reception for our annual Figure & Portrait Show. Exhibition Judge Lenin DelSol will announce selections.
In an age of digital connection and physical distance, how do we capture and portray what makes us most human? What does it mean to be human in this moment and how can art portray this? Through figure and portrait, artists have long explored the complexity of human experience—our vulnerabilities, connections, contradictions, and resilience.
The public is invited to the ARTIST RECEPTION – Saturday, February 14, 2026, 1-3pm
to see the show, meet the artists and hear awards announced by exhibit judge Lenin Delsol. It is free to visit the gallery and see the show during gallery hours,
