Tu-F, 3-6pm through 7/6; F, 6/22, 7-9pm; Something Honest, Nothing Profound. Kelly Peyton’s newest body of work centers on the personal impact of everyday concepts, quotes and statements.

The opening reception is Friday, June 22, 7-9pm. Tu-F, 3-6pm through 7/6; F, 6/22, 79pm; In the Making.

Combined the siblings’ work shares the thread of moving the viewer from the common world into a more fantastical one. The opening reception is June 22, 7-9pm. Tu-F, 3-6pm through 7/6; F, 6/22, 7-9pm.
