QUIET INTERRUPTION Opening Reception Saturday, September 26, 2026 · 4-7 p.m. Exhibition Dates September 23 - October 10, 2026 Admission Free and open to the public What happens when something quiet changes the way you see a place? "Quiet Interruption" brings together artwork that invites you to slow down and notice what might otherwise be missed. A shift of light. A familiar object seen differently. A moment of stillness. A subtle tension. Something unexpected that quietly captures your attention. The works in this exhibition do not demand to be noticed. Instead, they create space for looking, lingering, and discovering something new. Across painting, sculpture, mixed media, and other forms, "Quiet Interruption" explores the beauty and complexity of those small moments that alter our experience of the everyday. Some works may feel intimate and contemplative. Others may interrupt a space with unexpected scale, material, movement, or presence. For collectors and art lovers, this is an invitation to look a little longer, to notice what catches you off guard, to discover the work that stays with you long after you've walked away.
