This new exhibition showcases artwork from our talented Art Institute Faculty. The artworks in this exhibit reflect the intricate biodiversity that defines this arid landscape - seed pods, as vessels of potential and renewal, the haunting beauty of skeletons as testimony to the cycle of life and the majestic saguaros with their towering presence, overseeing the desert through the seasons. Open through September 1, 2024.
