Stop by the Wallace Community Room during the month of March to view our current exhibit by a local artist!

Harmony and Discord: Nature’s Beauty, Humanity’s Impact is the intersection of our planet’s verdant splendor and humankind’s intension of destroying it in the name of progress.

This thought-provoking exhibit will feature organic material sculpture and expressive landscape paintings utilizing fervent brush work, heavy paint application, and high contrast color emphasizing the way organic matter moves and interacts with its environment. Where it intersects is at the corner of our conscious that dwells on manmade ecological disasters; what is in our control as individual consumers, and what is out of our control as corporations savage earth’s natural resources for profit and gain. It’s a fine line between appreciating and observing natural beauty and dealing with the crushing reality that the world’s natural resources are on a downward trajectory spiraling out of control.
