Join us on March 12 from 5pm to 7pm to celebrate the opening of Pictures & Poems. Pictures & Poems is a collaborative exhibition bringing together contemporary photography and poetry in partnership with Little Oak Press, the Charlottesville, Virginia based publisher known for championing intimate, place-driven books and magazines. Pictures & Poems explores the resonant dialogue between image and text, highlighting how photographs and poems can operate as parallel forms of storytelling. Each art form is shaped by memory, place, and emotional experience in distinct yet complementary ways. The exhibition features photographs by Matt Eich, Al J. Thompson, Ash Adams, and Ocean Vuong, alongside poems by Doug Van Gundy, Tanio M. McCallum, Ash Adams, and Ocean Vuong. Together, these artists blur the boundaries between visual and literary practices, inviting viewers to slow down and consider how meaning emerges through careful looking and attentive reading. Light snacks and a decaf coffee bar will be available, so we hope to see you there!
