Opening Reception: Friday, September 4th, 2026, 7 to 9 pm.

Show Runs Saturday/Sundays, September 5th to 20th, 2026.

Join artist Lance Austin Olsen as he documents the present moment through paintings, mixed media, and printmaking works.

"Since I am less able to do the big works daily I am still able to constantly work even if it is from my living room couch. This exhibition is about the moment that we all inhabit known collectively as 'Now'; the only moment in which we exist. As always I view each piece as a footstep through my life, a diary of my daily thinking if you will."
