A COMMON ELEMENT 💧 SEPTEMBER 14

Join us at 4 Elements Studio on Monday, September 14 from 5–8 PM for an evening bringing together art, artists, and community.

We’ll be celebrating the opening of The Standing Roots, featuring the work of Kathleen Ann Donovan, alongside the launch of our MV Gives campaign.

Kathleen's work explores the unseen, an attempt to reveal the hidden energies that pulse through nature, human perception, and the structures we impose upon the world. As an abstract expressionist, she embraces the serendipitous mystery of creation, the science of entropy, and the phoenix-like cycle of transformation in art.

Throughout the evening, guests can explore the gallery and studios, meet artists, enjoy live music, food and drinks, and learn more about the work happening at 4 Elements and the impact of supporting us through MV Gives.

Monday, September 14 | 5–8 PM
4 Elements Studio
809 Court Street, Utica, NY

The Standing Roots will be on view through October 16, 2026.

Come celebrate Kathleen’s opening, spend the evening with us, and help kick off MV Gives with A Common Element.

Today, our team took a field trip to tour the ceramics studios at Pratt Munson!

Our tour was led by Studio Manager Veronica Byun, who introduced us to the many different kilns on site, including salt, wood-fire, anagama, and traditional kilns. We also learned about the glazes made in-house and explored some of the tools and techniques used in the studios, including extruders and hump molds.

A huge thank you to Veronica for giving us such an informative and inspiring tour and for even welcoming us into her personal studio and allowing us to poke around! It was amazing to see so many ceramic pieces, both beautifully finished and still in progress.

We left feeling inspired and excited to bring some of what we learned back to 4 Elements Studio!

What a night! Thank you to everyone who came out last night and made the BIG PRINTS opening such an incredible success. We had a full house filled with art, music, food, conversation, and so much community support.

A very special thank you to our new Executive Director, Audrey Hasen Taylor, for all the work she put into bringing this night together. We’re so excited to have Audrey joining the 4 Elements Studio team and grateful for the energy and dedication she has already brought to our community.

A huge shout-out to Courtney Newvine for sharing a screening of her incredible short documentary, This Must Be the Place. It was an awesome addition to the evening and gave everyone a closer look at the spirit, artists, and community behind Steamrollin’ Prints.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this amazing show possible and to all of you who showed up to celebrate the artists and their work. We couldn’t have asked for a better night!
