Your last chance to see "Shelter as a Human Right" is this weekend.

📅Last day on view: Sept. 26!
📍2nd floor, Forum Gallery

Curated by Eric Tuck-Macalla, the group exhibition explores what it means to be unsheltered, to be under the strain of housing insecurity, and to be a refugee in today's social climate.

This group exhibition features two- and three-dimensional artworks created by artists from the unhoused community that Macalla assists at St. Paul's UCC in Cleveland, Ohio, as well as Macalla's own sculptural structures. Artists include Leslie Brooks, Juliet Floyd, Kenneth Irby, Dwight Jenkins, Andrea Puryear, Eric Tuck-Macalla, Kaleigh Tuck-Macalla, and Marthe Verne. Visitors will experience emotional representations of home, hearth, and shelter through the lens of individuals who have experienced this displacement firsthand.

Stop by during our public hours on Fridays and Saturdays, 12-5 p.m., to see all our Summer Exhibitions before they're gone.

Coming to the BOX Gallery tomorrow, September 25!

"Via" Mixed Media Immersive by Adriana Caso

📅September 25 - October 24, 2026

Visit during our public hours: Fridays & Saturdays, 12- 5 p.m

Via explores the tension between the anxious balancing act many of us call life and the possibility of another “Via”. Blending realistic portraiture with stylized botanical and theatrical imagery, the exhibition invites viewers into a world where certainty gives way to wonder, asking what might happen if, instead of holding on tighter, we discovered that beauty, grace, and Love have been waiting beneath us all along.

The BOX gallery is a project of Artists of Rubber City FREE and open to the public!
