We are bringing back the Earth Day and Our Wild World exhibitions, alongside new opportunities that continue to explore the relationship between art, nature, and community.
2025 was our year of experimentation. Trying new formats, testing platforms, finding our voice again, paying attention to what felt aligned, what didn’t, and figuring out how we wanted to show up without burning out. Not just as organizers, but as people navigating creativity, care, and the need for authentic community spaces too.
This space has never been about speed, numbers, or keeping up with what galleries or platforms are “supposed” to do. It’s been about learning how to build something different, more thoughtful, and interconnected, a place where artists can explore, reflect, and connect without feeling like they have to perform, compete, or prove their worth.
Along the way, we have learned that not everyone understands this approach. Many are used to transactional relationships, urgency, and constant output. Wanting everything now, instead of recognizing that meaningful things often take time, intention, and care to create. We are trying to shift the mindset towards slow, collaborative, community-centered work, not hustle culture capitalism.
That clarity matters to us.
We are not trying to be like every other gallery or platform, we do not value viral views, popularity, or prestige. We are trying to create room to discover new ways of doing things, supporting each other, and growing together, with artists who value mutual respect, participation, and care for the spaces they are part of.
If you are an artist that has been looking for something more intentional, and more focused on connection than competition, that’s what we are here for.
We are looking forward to more opportunities to connect and build community together in 2026!
P.S. Our site had a major make over, and is still under construction, but we would love to hear your feedback, and hope that it creates a better overall experience when visiting us.
Lots of exciting things on the horizon for 2026 - stay tuned!
