More details coming soon.
𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿!
We’re excited to welcome you all to our 2025 exhibition season, 𝙊𝙣 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜. Conceptualized in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic—a time that devastated physical and mental health, and highlighted deep political and socio-cultural wounds that continue to divide the community—this year’s exhibitions are not prescriptive.
Instead, they shed light on the various collective afflictions that still need tending, and invite artists to share their experiences, meditations, and strategies for moving forward.
Additionally, look for related programming during our exhibition opening celebrations (C You Saturday!), as well as weekly weekend activations that explore healing from a variety of perspectives, launching this Spring.
In the meantime, check out our 2025 exhibition lineup, beginning with the opening of 𝗘𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻 & 𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗱 𝗣𝗲ñ𝗮:𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙮 𝙖𝙨 𝙂𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙩𝙨 on Saturday, January 18 at 𝗜𝗖𝗔 𝗦𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝗴𝗼 / 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵.
