Our Listening Hands explores and celebrates the enduring connection to place and nature that shape both the making and viewing of Japanese woodblock printmaking, called mokuhanga. The Mokuhanga Sisters are nine artists from around the world, who formed a global print collective after meeting during a residency in Japan.

Into the Abstract brings together the works of Paul Gruhler and Neha Vedpathak, two artists separated by generations but united in their dedication to abstraction. The exhibition considers how Gruhler’s methodical layering of color and Vedpathak’s time-intensive plucking technique challenge contemporary culture’s fixation on speed and output. Loans from the ArtBridges Foundation further expand the conversation around abstraction.

Born in the segregated South, New Hampshire-based artist Richard Haynes transforms the country’s history of division into a vision of unity and love. Seeing, he reminds us, is not neutral or passive, but rather shaped by personal experience, cultural background, and knowledge. Haynes’ drawings, paintings, and photographs assert the artist’s belief that art has the power to shift perceptions, to heal, and to unite.
