One of my favorite parts of running Hive Studio is watching our community rally around local artists.

Last week, that support helped Alisa Ann Ogden sell more than half of the artwork in her solo exhibition! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate Alisa's hard work. Watching Alisa share her artwork with the community and connect with visitors was a reminder of why opportunities like this matter. Congratulations, Alisa, on a successful show!

If you missed the exhibition, you can learn more about Alisa's story and view her artwork at specialolympicsheart.com

Be sure to follow Hive Studio to stay up to date on upcoming exhibitions, classes, and creative opportunities.

Hive Studio is pleased to introduce Alisa Ann Ogden, the artist behind our current exhibition, Through Alisa’s Eyes: A Celebration of Color and Courage.

As an artist with Down syndrome, Alisa creates colorful work inspired by nature and the idea that things don’t have to be perfect to have value. Her work celebrates individuality, joy, and faith. In addition to being an artist, Alisa is also a Special Olympics athlete and entrepreneur whose creativity shines through in everything she does.

We’re excited to share Alisa’s debut solo exhibition with the community.
