EXHIBITIONS
Henry Klimowicz's exceptional exhibition Method for Proceeding continues through November 10. Do not miss this fascinating installation of large pieces spanning 12 years of Henry's work in cardboard, glue and light. If you have already seen the work, we encourage you to come back at a different time of day. Morning light creates pattern on our gallery floor. After dark, the display goes from the inside to outside, worth a walk or drive by.
Galleries are open Tuesday through
Sunday 10am - 5 pm.
