Summer Exhibition: PLAY | Opening Reception

Be our guest for the opening reception of our 2026 Summer Exhibition. Entering our third year of exploring Art + Embodiment, the importance of play has emerged as an overarching necessity in both ourselves and our experiences. Play voluntarily pulls us out of the routines of daily life, allowing us to push past boundaries and learn beyond our habitual patterns. The artist’s studio practice operates in this same realm—a playground for curiosity where the artist establishes a certain practice and then plays around with it. The materials used give direction, substance to react or respond to, and help artists both fail well and build confidence. And, as with most good games, playful improvisation and breaking the rules are key. Join us for an exhibition steeped in explorative playfulness, featuring works across myriad artistic mediums by Jose Dominguez, Aaron Dysart, Carolyn Swiszcz, & Judith Yourman. Preview showing for members from 4:00 – 4:30pm
