On display from September 3rd through the 27th at our gallery in the Tower District.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAnimals\u201d has a broad appeal and due to the eclectic photographic tastes and talents within our membership, we have generated an excellent show. We chose this theme because we don\u2019t tend to have exhibits dominated with photographs of animals and are always looking for ways to invite more community engagement. Pets, livestock, insects, wild animals, macro, action, anthropomorphic subjects, this show has got it all. So many of us love animals and resonate deeply with their imagery. This show gave us a lot of creative freedom as to what we exhibit and will no doubt have something for all to enjoy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please join us for opening night, ArtHop Reception Thursday, September 3rd from 5-8pm. Near the end of the exhibition is our monthly Friday Photography Live which will be an Artist Roundtable of many of the exhibitors on Friday, September 25th at 7pm.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0045c36 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0045c36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<b>Artworks by:<\/b>\n\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scott Ahles<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hilary Austen<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Laura Bolton<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dan Cabe<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stephen Carlson<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jim Curnyn<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Larry Cusick<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joe Doherty<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steve Dzerigian<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Victoria Flores<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Franka Gabler<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miguel Gamez-Macias<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Helen Gigliotti<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kristin Kessey<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">George Krause<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Michael Levy<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tanya Lin<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sherry Loeser<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jack May<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mac Mechem<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">John Moses<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elizabeth Parkin<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Michelle Ricci-Koch<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sally Stallings<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Karen Tillison<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rob Vercoe<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Juergen Vespermann<\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spectrum Art Gallery presents Animals | A Members Exhibition September 3 &#8211; 27, 2026 ArtHop Reception: September 3rd, 5-8PM Friday Photography Live &#8211; Panel Discussion: September 25th, 7PM Elizabeth Parkin Scott Ahles Hilary Austen Spectrum Art Gallery is thrilled to bring you \u201cAnimals,\u201d a members exhibition featuring 27 of our incredible artists.
