upcoming 2026 exhibitions

Local artist, Eric Twait’s exhibition, “Letter’s to the Void”, presents a series of paintings that explore grief as both an intimate and collective experience. Moving fluidly between abstraction and echoes of landscape, the works reflect how loss reshapes memory and perception. Each canvas is layered with subtle shifts in color and texture, evoking the passage of time and the quiet weight of absence.

This exhibition is ranging from small studies to larger, immersive pieces. Alongside the paintings, interactive installations invite visitors to share their own experiences of hardship and resilience. These participatory elements are positioned to encourage reflection and dialogue without disrupting the contemplative flow of the gallery space, creating a setting where personal and communal narratives intersect.

Though rooted in the artist’s own story, this body of work seeks to hold space for others. Themes of impermanence, memory, and renewal run throughout, suggesting that while grief alters the landscape of our lives, it can also open pathways toward deeper connection and understanding.

Please join us for the opening reception and artist talk Friday, January 16th, from 5-7pm.

In “Reflections of Reality”, created by Minnesotan artist, Roger Dullinger, viewers are invited to experience the natural world through a lens of meticulous realism and heartfelt observation. This collection of original oil paintings captures landscapes, rural settings, birds, animals, and botanicals with a striking clarity that honors both the grandeur and intimacy of nature.

Rooted in Minnesota’s diverse scenery - its lakes, forests, and farmlands - the works are inspired by reference photographs taken during the artist’s explorations close to home. Complementing these are pieces born from travels out west, where vast horizons and rugged terrain provide a dramatic counterpoint to the quiet beauty of the Midwest.

“Reflections of Reality” is more than a showcase of technique - it is a meditation on presence, place, and the enduring beauty found in everyday encounters with nature.

Please join us for an artist talk and reception, Friday, August 14th from 5-7pm.
