Opening Reception August 2nd 1 to 4pm (refreshments)
For nearly a decade, the four of us have gathered for Art Night—a space to create, connect, and recharge. What started as a simple prompt-based session has become a beloved ritual filled with art-making, wine, laughter, and honest critique. It's fueled our work and deepened our friendship. This exhibit is a glimpse into the joy, growth, and creative energy that Art Night continues to spark.
