Finding the Thread

A Gallery 114 Members Show

Please join our talented member-artists in July for a visual feast. Sixteen artists follow their own personal thread, as it intertwines with the work of their fellow members (and the many other influences and connections in their lives). Each maker has to work out their own subject, form, and materials, resulting in a singular voice that brings these elements together.

Our collective gallery is home to a varied set of personalities and purposes, means and methods. But our shared mission is the same: to find, follow and develop a singular form of expression, and bring it to the viewer with succinct passion and clarity. Whether we’re searching inside or outside, working realistically, formally or through abstraction, we all continue to push our limits and challenge ourselves.

Welcome to our lively world—let us show you what we’ve uncovered while we’ve been searching out our threads.

Opening Reception
First Thursday, July 2nd, 5 – 8:30PM

Meet and Greet
Saturday, July 25th, 1–3PM

Please join us for our artist Meet and Greet on Saturday July 25th, 1-3 pm. As a special treat, we have teamed with our neighbors Battle Creek Cellars, who will be doing a wine tasting in our gallery. Both art and bottles will be available for purchase. All of our artist-members look forward to meeting you, answering questions and sharing this unique event.
