  • Marks of Memory

    September 11 - December 6, 2026
    Opening Reception September 11, 2026, 6-8 p.m.

    Marks of Memory examines time, data, ancestry, and personal experience through the work of three contemporary artists—Veronica Jackson, Annette Lawrence, and LaRissa Rogers—who question what stories get told, who gets remembered, and what data gets counted and recorded. Highlighting printmaking and patterning as physical processes and systems of communication, this exhibition examines how personal and collective histories are remembered, preserved, and disseminated.
