SUMMARY:Call to Artists! Slice: A Juried Exhibit of Regional Art 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Pence’s Slice exhibit\, now in its 14th year\, is open for submission by California artists working in any medium (except video or sound). This is an ‘open theme’ exhibit\, which showcases art that is conceptually thoughtful\, technically skilled\, and representative of contemporary trends in art. Two-dimensional work must not exceed 36” wide\, and three-dimensional work must not exceed 75 lb. Applicants may submit between 1-3 images of work for review\, with an artist statement and resume\, at www.callforentry.org\, and pay $35 for Pence Members ($40 for non-Pence Members) by May 12th\, 9 PM PST. Prizes of $200-400 will be awarded by the juror during the reception. \nThis year’s juror is Gioia Fonda\, an interdisciplinary artist working primarily in two-dimensional media (painting\, drawing\, sewing\, and photography) with occasional forays in sculpture\, social practice and public art. Regardless of media\, she tends to work in a colorful and non objective manner\, but just under the surface\, her work is often imbued with storytelling and narrative. She has a bi-coastal art education\, having earned a BFA at the California College of the Arts and an MFA at the School of Visual Arts in New York. Gioia is a dedicated member of the Sacramento art community contributing as an artist\, curator\, jurist\, and collaborator. She is also a tenured professor of art at Sacramento City College where she teaches painting\, drawing\, and design. Her work has been exhibited widely throughout Northern California and is held in many collections\, both private and institutional. \nMay 12: Applications due online by 9 PM PST at www.callforentry.org\nJune 1: Notification of juried results by email\nJuly 10 – August 16\, 2026: Exhibition dates\, 11:30 AM – 5 PM (closed Mondays)\nJuly 10: Reception from 6-9 PM (Awards at 8 PM) \nView the full Slice artist call and more details at www.callforentry.org.

SUMMARY:The Abstract Language of Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:The Abstract Language of Ceramics\nExhibit: April 10 – June 3\, 2026\nReception: April 10\, 6-9 PM (Free) \nThe Abstract Language of Ceramics features the work of ceramic artists Karyn Gabriel\, Mark Goudy\, Kris Marubayashi\, Liza Riddle\, and Laura Van Duren. Together\, these artists create striking geometric and biomorphic forms that underline their pursuit of simple forms inspired by nature. Karyn Gabriel’s woven vessels and hangings merge the idea of fiber and weaving with the flexible nature of clay. Goudy’s current sculptures are modeled on mathematical equations\, which he adapts on the computer\, using new technology to design and create molded forms. Kris Marubayashi’s vessels have a sense of movement and balance\, and employ natural textures and an earth-toned palette. Liza Riddle’s modified cubes\, hanging plinths\, and circles use color sparingly to emphasize the beauty of cracks that form while drying. Laura Van Duren shows a playful incorporation of found objects\, textiles\, and clay\, closely resembling the corporal reality of human interaction. \nThis exhibit is sponsored by Hollie Malamud & Chris Kelsch\, and Helen McClosky\, in memory of ceramicist Shelly Simon. \nImage:\nLaura Van Duren\, “Curl”\nKris Marubayashi\, Untitled\nKaryn Gabriel\, “Aspen Brick”\nMark Goudy\, “Flux Series”\nLiza Riddle\, Untitled

SUMMARY:Linda Clark Johnson: Sunshine & Shadows
DESCRIPTION:Linda Clark Johnson: Sunshine & Shadows\nExhibit: May 2 – June 21\, 2026\nLinda Clark Johnson is a Sacramento artist who primarily works with cyanotype\, an early photographic process that uses UV light to create luminous blue images without a camera or negative.

SUMMARY:Adding Stones to Rise A Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists
DESCRIPTION:Adding Stones to Rise\nA Group Exhibition of Sacramento-Based Artists\nArtist and Curator: Adero Willard \nMay 1 – May 29\, 2026\nSecond Saturday Reception: Saturday\, May 9\, 5–8 PM \nAdding Stones to Rise is a curated group exhibition bringing together Sacramento-based artists working across multiple media\, including painting\, printmaking\, ceramics\, sculpture\, and new media. The title was developed in response to the work and writings of the artists in the exhibition and to the regional presence of rivers that move through and around Sacramento. Water becomes a point of connection—flowing\, sustaining\, eroding\, nurturing\, and reshaping. It can lift\, carry\, overwhelm\, or renew. The flow of a river may also be understood simply as the movement of material through the earth. In this context\, adding stones may suggest burden\, accumulation\, protection\, labor\, or foundation; rising may evoke resistance\, healing\, survival\, visibility\, or change. \nArtists were selected to create a diversity of voice\, perspective\, process\, medium\, and identity\, speaking to the expansiveness of Blackness and representing a collective of varying experiences. Each point is distinct\, yet inseparable from the whole—reflecting how identity\, particularly Blackness\, can be understood as fluid\, relational\, and non-monolithic. \nAdding Stones to Rise centers the work of Black women and nonbinary artists—new to the region\, rooted here\, or returning. Together\, these artists offer a collective meditation on movement\, care\, resistance\, and transformation. This exhibition is one moment in an ongoing story. It is not the first of its kind\, and it will not be the last. \nCuratorial Note: As a curatorial framework\, stones\, water\, and rivers function as metaphors for ideas brought together in this space and may not reflect the specific themes or content of each artist’s work. \nParticipating Artists\nDebra Pitman\, Laurelin Gilmore\, Amari More\, Victoria Kinyanjui\, Khalia Morris\, Tasha Green\, Delgreta Brown\, Alex Lowe\, Sabrina Clark\, Tasha Nicole \nPress Contact\n[Adero Willard] [potterybyadero@gmail.com |

SUMMARY:2nd Friday ArtAbout reception: Cathy Brorby
DESCRIPTION:A Celebration Of Color\nCathy Brorby\nquilts\, wool appliqué\, fiber art\nApril 28 to May 30\n2nd Friday ArtAbout Reception: May 8\, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.\nLogos Books\, 513 Second Street\, Davis\, CA\, 95616 \nCathy Brorby has always enjoyed making things with textiles. Her sister taught her how to knit when she was in elementary school and this experience led her to learn crochet\, embroidery and cross-stitching. \nIn 1995\, Brorby and a dear friend went to see the movie “How to Make an American Quilt” and it inspired them to take a quilting class for beginners. They were immediately hooked. She soon realized that cutting fabric into pieces and making a design with them was much more gratifying than cutting out pattern pieces and sewing them together to make articles of clothing. She eventually took more classes and explored other quilting styles and techniques. \nRecently\, Brorby has turned her focus to wool appliqué. She embellishes her works with different threads\, beads and materials in order to add layers of complimentary colors and textures. She loves to experiment with rainbow color schemes and how those schemes flow and interact with each other. \nThe pieces on display are not for sale\, but you are welcome to contact Brorby about her work at cbrorby@gmail.com or 530-219-8211. \nMeet Cathy Brorby at her 2nd Friday ArtAbout reception on May 8 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Light refreshments will be served. Live music will be performed by the Folk Music Folks in the Coldwell Banker parking lot next door. \nPublic receptions for local artists will also be held at various venues on that same evening in conjunction with the Davis Downtown 2nd Friday ArtAbout. You can see more details and download a map of venues at facebook.com/davisartabout or https://theartery.net/2nd-friday-artabout \nLogos Books is owned and operated by the Friends Of The Davis Public Library.

SUMMARY:Shrek\, The Musical
