All Things Great and Small

Exhibition Curated by PE Pinkman

Opening Reception: Friday, October 4, 5-9pm

   During JCAST

All Things Great and Small is an exciting juried exhibition inviting artists and creators from diverse backgrounds to explore and showcase the concept of scale in their work. This exhibition celebrates the remarkable spectrum between the grand and the minimal, emphasizing that every element, whether monumental or minuscule, carries its own significance and impact.

The aim of this exhibition is to highlight the importance and beauty of both the large and the small, encouraging participants to reflect on how scale influences perception, meaning, and value. Through this exploration, we hope to foster a greater appreciation for the diversity and complexity of the world around us.
