Love is in the Air
An Eclectic Celebration of Meaningful Art in a Pop-up Exhibit
"Love is in the Air" – An Eclectic Celebration of Meaningful Art
This February, we're redefining the typical Valentine’s Day theme with an exhibit straight from the hearts of our own Gallery Artists. Instead of the usual hearts and roses, we issued a Call for Art asking them to share paintings and images that hold a special place in their lives—whether inspired by a cherished loved one or simply a piece they adore for deeply personal reasons.
Experience the emotion behind the art as you explore this unique collection, filled with works that radiate passion, connection, and heartfelt meaning. While you’re here, take in the wide array of fine art gracing our gallery walls.
Visit us and feel the love—"Love is in the Air" will be on display through February 16th.

It’s a fun, informal gathering where art enthusiasts connect over morning refreshments, share ideas, and discuss art—or anything else (except politics). No formal speakers, just lively, relaxed conversation.
