Current Exhibits

Land Between Exhibition

A SAQA Local Connection Showcase created by Members of the Land Between Pod

On display for the month of April in the Upper Lobby

The Land Between Challenge

Many of our Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) members attended the 2023 Conference in Toronto, “Pathways to Possibilities”, which led to many discussions about the potential for a group activity.  We discussed different formats and themes and finally agreed on “The Land Between” as our theme.  Our objective was to explore what this meant to us personally, not just as a specific physical area.  How does it reflect in our art?  What social, economic and environmental issues do we face.  Are we “between” in our work – starting to transition from one style to another?  

In order to display our art in non-traditional locations, it was agreed that our work would be mounted on a 12” x 12” artist canvas.  There has been no restriction on the media used or in the use of dimensional objects. 

Welcome to our world – The Land Between – and what it means to us.
