The We're Doing It ALL Wrong® - 5th Annual Art Exhibition opens on August 1st ending on September 28th. Over 40 artworks were selected from a group of entries by jurors - artist/activist Devan Horton (Cincinnati) and gallery owner Ed Dixon (Dayton, OH).

Learn the basics of foraging your own colors using regional plants available in your own backyard! We will learn about some of Devan's favorite plants to use as well as a few simple tie dye techniques that enable us all to create art that's accessible, sustainable, and good for you, your neighbors, and the bees. Students will create their own tea towel using these methods as well as learn how to recreate these techniques at home.

This workshop is hosted by the Edward A. Dixon Gallery to promote art and sustainability as part of the We're Doing It ALL Wrong® - 5th Annual Art Exhibition.

Artwork presented to you in Living Color from this group exhibition. Vibrant and colorful artworks fill the gallery from June 5th through July 11th. Make plans to attend the Opening Reception on 6/5 from 6pm-9pm at the gallery.

“Images from Storytellers"⁠ is part of the 2024 FotoFocus Biennial: backstories.

⁠October 4th: Opening Reception - 6pm-9pm
October 5th: Photographer Talk - 1pm-3pm⁠
October 25th: Video Screening - 3pm-8pm

Every gathering of people has a backstory. Opening October 3, 2024, “Images from Storytellers” features a mixture of unchoreographed and staged photographic records from gatherings that reveal differing perspectives and relationships between photographer and subject. The works are created from various vantage points that do not necessarily feature the main event, but instead a necessary backstory. Photographers often capture moments that represent these alternate ideas, in spite of knowing these are not the desired images, believing they are key moments that must exist to capture the interaction, behavior, and emotion of those involved. ⁠⁠Artists: Gregory Changa Freeman, Susanne Conyers, Shon Curtis, Alfred Powell, James Steppenwolf Hernandez⁠.

Light Refreshments provided. Free on-street parking.

The 4th edition of the national, juried exhibition opens August 2nd. Visit weredoingitallwrong.com to learn more and to see past exhibitions.
