SUMMARY:Maryann Steinert-Foley & Diane Williams: The Realm of Possibility
DESCRIPTION:Maryann Steinert-Foley & Diane Williams: The Realm of Possibility\nExhibit: December 12\, 2025 – February 1\, 2026\nReception: Friday\, December 12\, 6-9 PM (free) \nIn The Realm of Possibility\, artists Diane Williams and Maryann Steinert-Foley explore the persistence\, generosity\, and unseen forces that sustain both nature and humanity. Williams’ layered mixed-media paintings incorporate roots\, branches\, and floral subjects. She builds and excavates her surfaces with paints\, oil sticks\, ink\, pencil and collage\, revealing traces like memory. Steinert-Foley’s sculptures give tactile\, three-dimensional form to themes fundamental to the human endeavor. Her figurative works address the tension between religion and procreation\, while her Boats (Vessels) carry people\, goods\, and culture across time and space. \nA Conversation with the Artists\nSaturday\, January 10\, 2-3:30 PM\n$10 (Free for Students & Members) \nJoin us for a fun and stimulating talk with artists Diane Williams and Maryann Steinert-Foley\, whose exhibit The Realm of Possibility is currently on display at the Pence. Director Natalie Nelson will facilitate the conversation on their respective processes\, layers of meaning in the work\, and the balance between art and life. \nThis exhibit is sponsored by Nancy Roe. \nImages: Maryann Steinert-Foley\, “My Choice Not Yours No. 3” (left); Diane Williams\, “Drifting Sirens” (right)

SUMMARY:Charlene Will: Here for a While
DESCRIPTION:Charlene Will: Here for a While\nExhibit: January 9 – February 28\, 2026\nReception: Friday\, January 9\, 6-9 PM (free)\nCharlene Will’s work is rooted in a reverence for nature.

Working with oils on canvas\, she uses traditional and self-taught brushwork\, glazes\, and the removal of layers to reveal the ephemeral qualities of light and color found in various natural ecosystems. \nArtist Talk with Charlene Will\nSaturday\, January 31\, 2-3:30 PM\n$10 (Free for Students & Members)\nThe artist will give a walk-through of her work\, covering her favorite locations to paint\, how color and light inspires her\, and the noticeable effects of climate on the natural world. Walking\, observing\, and moving through wilderness areas are paramount to her process\, and she’ll provide glimpses into how her work evolves. \nCharlene Will is the recipient of the 2025 Pence Gallery Emerging Artist Award. The Award and exhibit are sponsored by Rosa Marquez & Yatish Mishra. \nImage: Charlene Will\, “Anza Borrego”
