Harrison Center

<h2>Join us for First Friday!</h2>
6 new shows, live music, food trucks, and more! No entry fee. Pet-friendly. All ages.
<h3>Enjoy these openings:</h3>
In the Harrison Gallery, Pursuit of the Muse by Stephanie Spay. In her latest series of oil paintings, Spay explores the transformative power of intuition in a vibrant dialogue with color, seeking to reveal the inherent creativity within. This body of work embodies acts of pursuit and honor of the muse, prioritizing presence and curiosity over the confines of expectation and judgment.
In the Gallery Annex, Family Matters by Lauren Saunders, Stephanie Spay, &amp; Kate Orr. This collection of oil paintings explores the quiet and not-so-quiet moments of family life. Through still lifes, intimate interiors, and figurative works, each artist reflects on the people, places, and everyday experiences that define family.
In the Speck Gallery, The Way Home by Kristi Marsh Watson. Through 2D mixed-media paintings created using an array of art supplies and natural materials, Marsh Watson explores the complexities of middle adulthood. She captures an introspective journey through changing relationships, landscapes, the passage of time, and most importantly, finding home within oneself.
In the City Gallery, A Closer Look by Jason Bailey. Experience the talent of impressionist plein air painter Jason Bailey, who is known for capturing fleeting light, atmosphere, and the energy of a scene through bold, expressive brushwork crafted from direct observation outdoors. This collection of oil paintings made on location invites viewers to slow down and notice the quiet, fleeting details that reveal themselves only with closer attention.
In the Underground Gallery, Stories From a Kite Runner: The Human Desire for Freedom by Qahar Behzad. This immersive exhibition celebrates the beauty, resilience, and rich cultural heritage of Afghanistan through a collection of paintings and handmade kites by Afghan artist Qahar Behzad. Surrounding visitors overhead, a sky of colorful kites transforms the gallery into a space of wonder, inviting audiences to experience the joy, creativity, and symbolism of flight.
In the Hank &amp; Dolly’s Gallery, Whimsy by Kyrie Lewis. Intimate watercolor scenes pair with immaculate acrylics to highlight the important pursuit of whimsy. Lewis invites us to look deeper into an enchanting world of story and fascination to find solace in the midst of unremarkable pain and uncertainty.
In the Sky Gallery, Remnants and Fractures by Quincy Owens. This show comprises two bodies of work that play off each other, with stark black-and-white resin pieces set against a group of vivid paintings. Owens seeks to explore how the left and right hemispheres of his brain work together but separately, exploring beauty in fractures and faults.

On the Sky Deck, Hannah Kaminer, a musician from Asheville, NC, will perform songs from her two 48-hour residencies. Eden Pixar-Byeon from Guatemala will perform music from her five-week residency.
