Slice: A Juried Exhibit of Regional Art 2025
Exhibit: July 11 – August 17, 2025
Reception: July 11, 6-9 PM (awards at 8 PM)
Slice celebrates the diversity of expression in our region with an array of sculpture, prints, paintings, and photography created by 36 visual artists. This year marks the 13th anniversary of the Pence regional call to artists, that is affectionately called Slice. Representing a ‘slice’ of work fresh from the studio produced by new and established artists working in the state, this annual juried exhibit has quickly gained a reputation for displaying innovative and thought-provoking work.
This year’s juror is Susie Kantor. She is the Associate Curator & Exhibition Department Head at the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art at UC Davis. Her curatorial projects there include Through Their Eyes: Selections from the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Collection; Phillip Byrne, Beatriz Cortez, Kang Seung Lee, Candice Lin: Entangled Writing; Shiva Ahmadi: Strands of Resilience; Loie Hollowell: Tick Tock Belly Clock; and From Moment to Movement: Picturing Protest in the Kramlich Collection. Previously, she worked at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco. She holds an MA in Art History with a focus on 17th century Dutch painting from New York University, Institute of Fine Arts.
