Join us for the opening reception of Stillwater Imaginings, a vibrant mixed-media exhibition by artist Candace Garlock. In this body of work, birdlike guardians stand in vivid, dreamlike landscapes inspired by bird sanctuaries in Nevada. These hybrid figures act as emotional stand-ins for the artist’s friends and family, their bold lines, saturated color, and tactile materials weaving together human, animal, and environmental energies. The series invites viewers into a colorful space where imagination and migratory paths overlap, turning the refuge into a stage for reflecting on care and guardianship of shared habitats.

Stillwater Imaginings will be on display from Saturday, September 5, through Sunday, November 8.
