Where We Are | July 22-September 16
Art has the power to build bridges, deepen relationships and transform us—if we have the courage to let it.
This transformative power is explored in the vivid exhibition Where We Are featuring three local artists: Marilyn Cummins, Jenny McGee and Stacia Schaefer.
Each used their chosen media and the creative process as a way to adapt and reflect on their various seasons of life and the challenges of facing the unknown. The works in watercolor and mixed media reflect the trials of recent years as well as the artists’ hope for the future.
Join us to enjoy Where We Are and explore how your current season is shaping you.
Opening Reception | July 27, 5:00-7:00 p.m.
Join us from 5-7 p.m. on Thursday, July 27 to celebrate Where We Are. Light refreshments and beverages will be served. No RSVP required.

Artist Talk: Marilyn Cummins | August 23, 1:00-2:00 p.m.
