The show runs from May 5 - June 23, 2019. There will be an opening reception on Sunday, May 5, from 2-4pm.</p> <p>The exhibit includes work by: <strong>Richard Barlow, Marilyn Crocker, Leila Daw, Daniel Eugene, Alexander Harding, Amy Jean Porter, James Prosek, Scott Schuldt, Gina Siepel, Joseph Smolinski</strong> and was curated by <strong>Fritz Horstman.</strong></p> <p>The artists in <em><strong>Water Access</strong></em> deal head-on with the ubiquitous and vital resource of water. Working in photography, sculpture, painting, drawing and beadwork, they show their sensitivities to the complicated human relationship with water. Some of the work is overtly political in its environmental concern. Others depict its sublime qualities, its mundane aspects, the life it supports, or the ways in which we interact with it.
