Join us for a show that honors connection, empathy, and kindness at the root of studio practice
Conduits of Care reflects the connectivity of community engagement, social consciousness, and visual art practices, through the lens of artists whose work supports an ethos of care. Both contemplative and outwardly-focused practices provide space for viewers to find solace and solidarity in challenging times. Nourishing our communities through engaging creatively and with intention, the artists in Conduits of Care expand the introspection of creative labor into the daily work of showing up in the world and caring for those around us.
Show runs November 20, 2026 – February 14, 2027
Artists include: Maya Critchfield, Heather Flor Cron & Kendra Dempewolff, Elizabeth Jabar, Shon Mahoney, and Yvonne Maiden.
