Exhibition runs March 24 - April 24, 2025. Join us for a conversation with artists Jennifer Anne Bennett and Jeanne Dunn. In the gallery, their large-scale canvases envelop us with the omnipresent beauty of Nature. Bennett’s animated brushstrokes and sumptuous color-washes coax luminous landscapes into being. Inspired by the healing experience of Japanese "forest-baths" (shinrin-yoku), Dunn paints a sensual arboreal space using vibrant hues and quasi-representational forms. Free and open to the public. Parking is free on event night on STAFF in Parking Lot 1. Gallery hours: M-Th 12 p.m. - 5 p.m. Closed on Fridays and Weekends.

The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack just placed three songs in the top 10 of the Hot 100 charts simultaneously — a feat not many movie soundtracks have accomplished.

The setting is London during the 1930s, where Jessica Medlicott, once a great stage actress who is now a wealthy widow, is being sued for “breach of promise” by her ex-fiancé, a handsome, much younger Naval officer. Desperate to protect what is left of her Depression Era-ravaged estate, she turns to highly-respected barrister Sir Arthur Granville-Jones to defend her in court, apparently not remembering that he was a former lover. Sparks fly when Sir Arthur agrees to take Jessica’s case, despite her insistence that they have never met, as she is the only woman the confirmed old bachelor has ever loved. This is a Weekly Recurring Event Runs from July 18, 2025 to Aug. 17, 2025 and happens every: Fridays: 7:30 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. Saturdays: 7:30 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. Sundays: 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. Visit: https://powpac.org/ PowPAC on Facebook

A Ceramic & Painting installation by Julia C R Gray & Sienna Browne.
Ceramic sculptures, sacred portal paintings, and surreal forms
— cracked open, stitched with gold, unapologetically alive.
This is not just a show—it’s a soft ceremony,
a space for story, emotion, embodiment, and expression. She will crack. Not by accident —by design. like ocean carving stone, cracks becoming luminous veins of light. The first fracture whispered like breath on wet clay: “Let go.” What in us is breaking? Beliefs? Control? Dreams? We listen. We sculpt. We let the light in.
