LET'S CREATE something beautiful in our community

Transformed

FEATURED

Echoes of the Matrix follows the passage of images across time and surface. Drawn from lived experience and transformed through printmaking and mixed media, each work becomes an echo—an imprint of place, memory, and encounter, altered through repetition and the subtle shifts of process.

 

August 6 – September 23, 2026

From The Scarborough-Linebery Collection:

Brilliance in Glass

Glass objects in this gallery were produced during the mid-twentieth century, between 1945 and 1980, and were collected by Mrs. Kara Scarborough and her daughter Mrs. Evelyn Scarborough Linebery. 

 

This period was marked by artistic experimentation and renewed optimism following World War II. Designers of this era sought to create objects that were both functional and expressive, reflecting the belief that well-designed everyday items could enhance modern life.

Today, mid-century glass is highly collectible due to its craftsmanship, historical importance, and timeless design.
