We’re bringing back our Artist Talks ✨

Throwback to one of our past conversations with Erica Trabold and Kaye Lipscomb—moments like these are what we love most: hearing directly from artists as they share the ideas, stories, and processes behind their work.

Missed the last one? Don’t worry—join us for the next Artist Talk with Meredith Peverill & Sarah-Faith Strait on June 6 from 1–2 PM at the Ann White Gallery (600 Main Street).

Through painting, memory, history, and movement come alive in two powerful bodies of work—offering a chance to hear how each artist builds meaning through their practice and process.

Free and open to the public. All are welcome. We hope to see you there 🤍
