Don't Box Me In - September First Friday Art Walk

Main Gallery: Don't Box Me In

Each summer, Access Gallery's intensive summer job program guides high school students with disabilities in developing foundational art skills and essential job readiness. For many, this is their first job. This year, the artists were challenged to create an exhibition with cardboard in "Don't Box Me In," an exhibition entirely conceived, marketed, and installed by the interns. Explore unique creations as everyday cardboard and other mediums are shaped into expressive artistic statements.

Community Art Wall Highlight: Echoes of Resilience: Works Seldom Seen

This exhibition features rarely seen works by Access Gallery's artists, profoundly shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic. Created in 2020 and early 2021, these pieces offer an intimate look into their creative journeys, transforming personal experiences into powerful artistic expressions that celebrate individual resilience and art's enduring power to connect. You’ll want to see these awe-inspiring pieces.
