SUMMARY:The Abstract Language of Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:The Abstract Language of Ceramics\nExhibit: April 10 – June 3\, 2026\nReception: April 10\, 6-9 PM (Free) \nThe Abstract Language of Ceramics features the work of ceramic artists Karyn Gabriel\, Mark Goudy\, Kris Marubayashi\, Liza Riddle\, and Laura Van Duren. Together\, these artists create striking geometric and biomorphic forms that underline their pursuit of simple forms inspired by nature. Karyn Gabriel’s woven vessels and hangings merge the idea of fiber and weaving with the flexible nature of clay. Goudy’s current sculptures are modeled on mathematical equations\, which he adapts on the computer\, using new technology to design and create molded forms. Kris Marubayashi’s vessels have a sense of movement and balance\, and employ natural textures and an earth-toned palette. Liza Riddle’s modified cubes\, hanging plinths\, and circles use color sparingly to emphasize the beauty of cracks that form while drying. Laura Van Duren shows a playful incorporation of found objects\, textiles\, and clay\, closely resembling the corporal reality of human interaction. \nThis exhibit is sponsored by Hollie Malamud & Chris Kelsch\, and Helen McClosky\, in memory of ceramicist Shelly Simon. \nImage:\nLaura Van Duren\, “Curl”\nKris Marubayashi\, Untitled\nKaryn Gabriel\, “Aspen Brick”\nMark Goudy\, “Flux Series”\nLiza Riddle\, Untitled

SUMMARY:Adding Stones to Rise A Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists
DESCRIPTION:Adding Stones to Rise\nA Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists\nArtist and Curator: Adero Willard \nMay 1 – May 29\, 2026\nSecond Saturday Reception: Saturday\, May 9\, 5–8 PM \nAdding Stones to Rise is a curated group exhibition bringing together Sacramento-based artists working across multiple media\, including painting\, printmaking\, ceramics\, sculpture\, and new media. The title was developed in response to the work and writings of the artists in the exhibition and to the regional presence of rivers that move through and around Sacramento. Water becomes a point of connection—flowing\, sustaining\, eroding\, nurturing\, and reshaping. It can lift\, carry\, overwhelm\, or renew. The flow of a river may also be understood simply as the movement of material through the earth. In this context\, adding stones may suggest burden\, accumulation\, protection\, labor\, or foundation; rising may evoke resistance\, healing\, survival\, visibility\, or change. \nArtists were selected to create a diversity of voice\, perspective\, process\, medium\, and identity\, speaking to the expansiveness of Blackness and representing a collective of varying experiences. Each point is distinct\, yet inseparable from the whole—reflecting how identity\, particularly Blackness\, can be understood as fluid\, relational\, and non-monolithic. \nAdding Stones to Rise centers the work of Black women and nonbinary artists—new to the region\, rooted here\, or returning. Together\, these artists offer a collective meditation on movement\, care\, resistance\, and transformation. This exhibition is one moment in an ongoing story. It is not the first of its kind\, and it will not be the last. \nCuratorial Note: As a curatorial framework\, stones\, water\, and rivers function as metaphors for ideas brought together in this space and may not reflect the specific themes or content of each artist’s work. \nParticipating Artists\nDebra Pitman\, Laurelin Gilmore\, Amari More\, Victoria Kinyanjui\, Khalia Morris\, Tasha Green\, Delgreta Brown\, Alex Lowe\, Sabrina Clark\, Tasha Nicole \nPress Contact\n[Adero Willard] [potterybyadero@gmail.com |

SUMMARY:Linda Clark Johnson: Sunshine & Shadows
DESCRIPTION:Linda Clark Johnson: Sunshine & Shadows\nExhibit: May 2 – June 21\, 2026\nLinda Clark Johnson is a Sacramento artist who primarily works with cyanotype\, an early photographic process that uses UV light to create luminous blue images without a camera or negative. Captivated by sunlight and always gathering plants\, she prints in her backyard\, capturing botanical impressions and their shadows on watercolor paper or fabric. She then uses natural toners\, collage\, watercolor\, and colored pencil to add layers of depth and detail to her work. Through her cyanotype prints\, she celebrates experimentation and the wonder of the natural world\, creating art that feels tranquil and atmospheric. \nArtist Talk & Reception: Sunday\, May 17\, 1-2:30 PM (Free)\nJoin artist Linda Clark Johnson as she discusses her artistic process in working with cyanotype\, including her love of sunlight and her ways of gathering and arranging plants. Linda will also show visitors how to get started with cyanotype through an artist demo\, as well as explore her current work in her exhibit\, Sunshine & Shadows. \nThis exhibit is sponsored by Wil & Karen Uecker. \nThe Pence Gallery is open 11:30 AM – 5 PM\, Tuesday through Sunday (closed Monday). \nImage: work by Linda Clark Johnson

SUMMARY:Adding Stones to Rise A Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists
DESCRIPTION:Adding Stones to Rise\nA Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists\nArtist and Curator: Adero Willard \nMay 1 – May 29\, 2026\nSecond Saturday Reception: Saturday\, May 9\, 5–8 PM \nAdding Stones to Rise is a curated group exhibition bringing together Sacramento-based artists working across multiple media\, including painting\, printmaking\, ceramics\, sculpture\, and new media. The title was developed in response to the work and writings of the artists in the exhibition and to the regional presence of rivers that move through and around Sacramento. Water becomes a point of connection—flowing\, sustaining\, eroding\, nurturing\, and reshaping. It can lift\, carry\, overwhelm\, or renew. The flow of a river may also be understood simply as the movement of material through the earth. In this context\, adding stones may suggest burden\, accumulation\, protection\, labor\, or foundation; rising may evoke resistance\, healing\, survival\, visibility\, or change. \nArtists were selected to create a diversity of voice\, perspective\, process\, medium\, and identity\, speaking to the expansiveness of Blackness and representing a collective of varying experiences. Each point is distinct\, yet inseparable from the whole—reflecting how identity\, particularly Blackness\, can be understood as fluid\, relational\, and non-monolithic. \nAdding Stones to Rise centers the work of Black women and nonbinary artists—new to the region\, rooted here\, or returning. Together\, these artists offer a collective meditation on movement\, care\, resistance\, and transformation. This exhibition is one moment in an ongoing story. It is not the first of its kind\, and it will not be the last. \nCuratorial Note: As a curatorial framework\, stones\, water\, and rivers function as metaphors for ideas brought together in this space and may not reflect the specific themes or content of each artist’s work. \nParticipating Artists\nDebra Pitman\, Laurelin Gilmore\, Amari More\, Victoria Kinyanjui\, Khalia Morris\, Tasha Green\, Delgreta Brown\, Alex Lowe\, Sabrina Clark\, Tasha Nicole \nPress Contact\n[Adero Willard] [potterybyadero@gmail.com |

SUMMARY:Reception: Adding Stones to Rise A Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists
DESCRIPTION:Adding Stones to Rise\nA Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists\nArtist and Curator: Adero Willard \nMay 1 – May 29\, 2026\nSecond Saturday Reception: Saturday\, May 9\, 5–8 PM \nAdding Stones to Rise is a curated group exhibition bringing together Sacramento-based artists working across multiple media\, including painting\, printmaking\, ceramics\, sculpture\, and new media. The title was developed in response to the work and writings of the artists in the exhibition and to the regional presence of rivers that move through and around Sacramento. Water becomes a point of connection—flowing\, sustaining\, eroding\, nurturing\, and reshaping. It can lift\, carry\, overwhelm\, or renew. The flow of a river may also be understood simply as the movement of material through the earth. In this context\, adding stones may suggest burden\, accumulation\, protection\, labor\, or foundation; rising may evoke resistance\, healing\, survival\, visibility\, or change. \nArtists were selected to create a diversity of voice\, perspective\, process\, medium\, and identity\, speaking to the expansiveness of Blackness and representing a collective of varying experiences. Each point is distinct\, yet inseparable from the whole—reflecting how identity\, particularly Blackness\, can be understood as fluid\, relational\, and non-monolithic. \nAdding Stones to Rise centers the work of Black women and nonbinary artists—new to the region\, rooted here\, or returning. Together\, these artists offer a collective meditation on movement\, care\, resistance\, and transformation. This exhibition is one moment in an ongoing story. It is not the first of its kind\, and it will not be the last. \nCuratorial Note: As a curatorial framework\, stones\, water\, and rivers function as metaphors for ideas brought together in this space and may not reflect the specific themes or content of each artist’s work. \nParticipating Artists\nDebra Pitman\, Laurelin Gilmore\, Amari More\, Victoria Kinyanjui\, Khalia Morris\, Tasha Green\, Delgreta Brown\, Alex Lowe\, Sabrina Clark\, Tasha Nicole \nPress Contact\n[Adero Willard] [potterybyadero@gmail.com |
