“Resilient Blooms: Life in Unexpected Places”

We may rest in winter, but creativity endures. Resilient Blooms asks: What flourishes in the hush of colder months—both in nature and in ourselves? The exhibition invites work that explores growth, endurance, nostalgia, and quiet hope of the fall season. From hardy seedlings pushing through frozen soil to the still strength of human reflection in isolation, it welcomes pieces that honor resilience and transformation. These are the subtle moments that light our darkest seasons. Artists are encouraged to consider how life persists despite harsh conditions and what gives us strength when the sun feels distant.

Exhibition Period: November 11, 2025 – April 5, 2026
