The moon pushes and pulls the tides, similar to how art moves us. We experience our own cycles through the orbital glow of the moon and the life giving energy of the sun. How do we feel when they dance together? In this curated exhibition, The Space Gallery invites you to experience celestial creations by seven local Vermont artists. All working in different mediums sharing a theme of the cosmos and the atmosphere we know.
Participating artists:
Deana Allgaier – @deanaallgaier – watercolor moon/landscapes

* We will be open on Monday April 8th during the eclipse! We have a straight shot to the sun in our main entrance parking lot near the astronaut mural. We’ll have some protective eyewear on hand but it is advised to bring your own in case we run out. Enjoy the experience of a lifetime with us! Parking will be limited so if you live nearby consider walking!
