The exhibition explores how "home" manifests as an assemblage of fragments: tangible items, fleeting moments, and overlooked details that, through their juxtaposition and arrangement, collectively create meaning. Featuring the work of Kieren Jeane, Linda LaBella, Keerim Kim, Kelly Han, Ianthe Jackson, Aude Verbrugge, and more…

Whats Been Happening this Month

Stamp Workshop Day 1

Stamp Workshop Day 2

Earlier this April, we hosted two incredible stamp-making workshops — and honestly, we’re still thinking about them. The creativity everyone brought was beyond inspiring, and each stamp felt like a tiny, beautiful universe of its own. If you missed it, don’t worry — we’ve got more special gatherings coming soon. Trust us, you’ll want to be at the next one. 💌
