Join us for a reception and artists' talks celebrating the Fall 2023 Overture Galleries.

Immerse yourself in a journey through the artistic wonders as Galleries I, II and III showcase artworks created by women artists. From powerful self-reflections and narratives to multimedia installations, these exhibitions offer a diverse range of perspectives and unveil the realms of creativity and expression. In the Playhouse Gallery, investigate your relationship with garbage. "Garbology" breathes new life into discarded objects and explores our collective and individual waste.
