"Transformation - 01/04/2027"
January 4th through March 24th, 2027

EXHIBITION DATES: JANUARY 4 – MARCH 24, 2027

FIRST FRIDAY RECEPTION: MARCH 5, 2027 | 5 – 8 PM

Begin the new year with purpose in Transformation, a benefit exhibition celebrating resilience, renewal, and the quiet strength it takes to keep going. This uplifting show features original artworks that speak to healing and hope — work that reminds us how much life there is on the other side of a hard diagnosis.

From luminous landscapes to intimate portraits and bold abstracts, each piece invites viewers to reflect on renewal in its many forms. Artists are encouraged to explore themes of vitality, connection, and second chances, and to share works that carry warmth and light into the winter months.

Proceeds from the exhibition benefit the National Kidney Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to awareness, prevention, and treatment of kidney disease. Through patient support, education, research funding, and advocacy for organ donation, NKF helps millions of Americans living with kidney disease — and the families who care for them. By purchasing artwork, patrons support both local artists and a mission that changes and saves lives.

Artworks may include: paintings, photography, 3D pieces, fiber works, jewelry, and much more! 50% of sold artwork sales will go directly to artists, with the remaining 50% benefiting the National Kidney Foundation.

Please limit the number of submissions to a maximum of 5. There is no entry fee to submit for this exhibition.

ART SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Tuesday, November 10th by 4PM
