OPENING RECEPTION STARTING NOW!
Join us tonight as we celebrate the work of two incredibly talented artists — Deneena Hughes and Steve Floyd!

We’re especially excited to welcome Minnesota artist Deneena Hughes and share her work with our community. Deneena brings a fresh perspective, beautiful creativity, and a style all her own, and we are thrilled to have her artwork featured at The Artificers.

Alongside her, we’re proud to showcase local artist Steve Floyd! There’s something extra special about celebrating creativity from right here in our own community, and Steve’s work is a wonderful reminder of the talent we have close to home.

Come spend the evening surrounded by art, meet the artists, enjoy the gallery, and help us give both Deneena and Steve a warm welcome!

Bring a friend, stop in, and celebrate an evening of art with us. We can’t wait to see you!
