The Work of Our Hands
The Work of Our Hands explores how Black artists use the foundational mediums of painting and drawing as powerful vehicles for communication, self-definition, and storytelling. Focused on the intimate, expressive nature of the hand-drawn line and the painted surface, the exhibition emphasizes the enduring significance of these traditional practices in articulating personal, cultural, and historical narratives.
On display through February 21.
Meet the artists every Friday from 1-2pm!

The Art of Renewal
Dana Montenieri, M.F.A. painting candidate
Savannah College of Art and Design
Montenieri’s thesis exhibition through the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), The Art of Renewal, examines how expressive and experiential therapies can serve not only individuals within clinical environments but entire communities in need of accessible pathways to healing. Through paintings that blend abstraction and realism, she explores themes of endurance, introspection, and hope—translating her therapeutic work into a visual language of restoration.
On display through January 31.
