Opening today, Saturday, May 9, 2026, from 11 am until 1 pm, is our newest exhibition, a captivating collection of watercolor portraits that explore the depth, nuance, and emotion of the human experience. This show brings together artists who use the fluidity and transparency of watercolor to capture not just likeness, but personality, mood, and story.

Artists featured in this show include Gary Price, Hakan Togul, Judith Hanacek, Arlene Freeman, Carlene Togul, Bernadette Hanacek, Lynelle Smith, and Judi Boehner.

During the Opening Reception, we will also host an exciting ArtMart featuring Karla Cluck, Linda Curl, Judy Hanacek, and Suzanne Dreher.
