this is a show about grief
Sept. 11th - Oct. 4th, 2026
Opening Reception: Friday, Sept. 11th 5-9pm
Hundreds of artists from around the world will be sharing their work about, around and within grief. We will have a large selection of work available in-house, as well as a massive selection of work that will be available "online-only" (to ship directly from the artist(s). We hope you can join us. A % of gallery proceeds will be donated to several non-profit organizations including
People's Memorial Association
Good Grief Network
A Sacred Passing
*curator's note: Grief presents itself to us in endless forms and is triggered by countless events throughout our lives. I realize this may sound obvious to most. Whether we have lost a family member (or two, as I have this past winter - hence the pull to do this show), a friend, or a pet; whether we are grieving over accelerating climate change or the loss of human rights that should never even be contested, whether we grieve missed opportunity, a missed connection or the ever-increasing pace of global unrest and uncertainty. It affects us all and it stems from a place of love, of compassion, of care.
For this exhibition we're showcasing work that explores how the artist has faced and/or is facing grief in whatever form it has come to them. Art is both acceptance and resistance, and a powerful tool for communication with one another in order to heal, understand, unlearn or relearn...let this exhibition be just one vibrant space in the amorphousness of grief's existence. We are stronger through it.
