SUMMARY:Lorena Long – Invitation
DESCRIPTION:Paintings\nWe often overlook ordinary wonders in nature—quiet reminders that grace and beauty persist in familiar places. Invitation takes its title from the poem by Mary Oliver\, echoing its gentle call to pay attention. At its heart\, this show turns our gaze toward process and presence and is an invitation to slow down\, reconnect\, and rediscover wonder in everyday life.

SUMMARY:Rich Isaacman – Night Journeys: Photography After Dark
DESCRIPTION:Photography \nThese works offer nighttime views in settings around the world\, from Vietnam to Bangladesh. The world is different after dark: different light\, different skies and cityscapes\, different people. This is especially true for photographers\, for whom the technical challenges of shooting at night are rewarded by the opportunity to explore a different world.
