SUMMARY:DRAWING IN THE GALLERY
DESCRIPTION:DRAWING IN THE GALLERY\nKAREN ZALAMEA: EVERY SURFACE IS A SHRINE  \nYou are invited to draw in the gallery during this monthly Sunday session. This is an open drawing activity meant to encourage looking\, slowing down and spending time in the gallery space. Prompts may be offered\, but you are welcome to draw in any way that feels comfortable to you. There is no expectation to create a finished artwork. All drawings are welcome! No experience is necessary and supplies are provided. \nBy donation. Pre-registration encouraged\, drop-ins welcome.\nRecommended for ages 16+. \nABOUT THE EXHIBITION\nThe Art Gallery at Evergreen is pleased to present Every Surface Is a Shrine\, which brings together a selection of photo-based works by Karen Zalamea that traces the shifting boundaries between material\, memory and place. Rooted in a critical exploration of photography’s expanded possibilities\, Zalamea’s practice reimagines the medium not only as an image-making tool but as a methodology of care\, labour and cultural inquiry. \nThis exhibition is part of the 2026 Capture Photography Festival Selected Exhibition Program.
