On July 14th we will be hosting a special evening of music at the Concrete House! 🦌 Isabella and the Sprouts joins us on her tour out east, with a trio all the way from New York, AND the one and only Steam Mill band is returning to their roots (did you know they first performed together here?)

It’s a show you won’t want to miss! July 14th, 7:30pm, PWYC 🍄⛵️🧚

Next month in the Hazelwood Gallery we look forward to displaying ‘What’s Hidden in the Shadows’ by Marla Benton, an immersive sculptural exhibition that explores the delicate interplay between form, light, and shadow through a series of porcelain tile installations. Suspended like curtains from rods and lit with intention, each piece invites the viewer to not only see, but to truly perceive the spaces in between.

The art opening will take place July 5th from 1-3pm. Hope to see you there!

Today! June 7th from 1-3pm will be the art opening of Over Under featuring artworks by Sophie Paskins and Sarah Reesor

Sophie Paskins and Sarah Reesor both work from instinct, building and reworking in layers.

Over Under reflects this approach of working, building up, taking back and adjusting, the shifting and tension between what sits on the surface and what stays underneath.
