Bring along something dear to you—a cherished object, a loved one, or simply yourself—and have your portrait captured by Tom Styrkowicz. Each visitor will receive a copy of their portrait to take home, and a curated selection will be featured in our 2025 exhibition, Community Portraits. This is a unique opportunity to celebrate and share the diverse stories of our community through the lens of a talented photographer.
Stay for Our End-of-Summer Celebration Evening Hours!
On August 9, during the first photo session, don’t miss our End-of-Summer Celebration Evening Hours from 5–8 p.m. Explore our exhibitions, paint a Bob Ross-style tree, and enjoy free popcorn and refreshments. A paid bar will be available for those who wish to purchase alcoholic drinks, and you can also participate in a DIY Ball Jar Terrarium activity for a small fee. This perfect blend of culture and fun is an ideal way to bid farewell to summer!
