This April, we are celebrating the paintings of Donna Grande. Donna uses expressive colors and textures to create paintings in conversation with nature. The effect is calming and hypnotic as you get lost in the kinetic motion of the brushstrokes. Each painting functions as an abstract story from the natural world.
This February, we are celebrating local legend Paul Rickert (1945-2023). Paul’s work—whether urban or coastal—showcases his emotional depth and reverence for his subjects, offering the viewer timeless landscapes to inhabit.

On Friday, December 5th, we will host a 2025 retrospective reception for our previously featured artists.
Join us as we celebrate Mark Palermo, Lara Cantu-Hertzler, Steven White, Richard Metz, and many other artists whose work we've showcased throughout 2025.
We are honored to name Mark Palermo as our next First Friday featured artist!
Mark’s paintings emphasize the beauty of the natural world, often in conversation with human-made objects. The interplay between shapes, colors, and sharp lines highlights the serenity of the scenes, welcoming viewers to get lost in the details.
