WHAT'S HAPPENING

Keep In The Sunlight

Keep In The Sunlight is an invitational exhibition inspired by the warm, uplifting spirit of Benjamin Franklin’s reminder: “Do not anticipate trouble, or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight.” This encouragement to stay present, embrace optimism, and resist unnecessary worry serves as the guiding idea for the show. Drawing on themes often found in Stoic philosophy, the exhibition invites artists to explore positivity, resilience, and joy through the radiant symbol of the sunflower.
