Upcoming Exhibitions
Rough Gems - Transnavigation: Coming Into the Body as Home
Curated by Rae Richards
January 16 - February 8
Transnavigation: Coming into the Body as Home captures a broad landscape of tools being used by trans folks to move through inside and outside worlds. This exhibition investigates how trans jewelers are navigating their bodies and the world their bodies exist in—whether through reinterpreting tools, inventing alternate ways of being, revisiting ancestral practices. It is an invitation to sit in the skin of our bodies, to practice being unsingular, fractured and whole, never allowing urgency or burning injury to deny intricate, fleshy, tumultuous, stories.
Rough Gems - RUINS: PERFORMING QUEER HISTORY
Curated by Nathan Storey
February 20 - March 15
RUINS: PERFORMING QUEER HISTORY is an exhibition of six interdisciplinary artists with diverse backgrounds reckoning with queer histories, pasts, archives, legacies, and loss within their own contemporary studio practices. The artists in RUINS unearth LGBTQ+ histories, search for its fragmentary pieces, and reimagine our queer constellations. To perform queer history, to grapple with our collective pasts, allows us to look toward our queer futures.
Rough Gems - Out of Time: Imagining the Future of America
Curated by J. Benjamin Burney
March 27 - April 19
Out of Time: Imagining the Future of America examines how artists working in painting, sculpture, mixed media, and photography envision speculative futures while grappling with America’s complex past. Through the power of visual representation, these works challenge historical narratives, question societal norms, and propose bold new realities. Across a range of mediums, the exhibition draws on the rich diversity of cultures and histories in America, illuminating possibilities for what lies ahead and inviting viewers to reconsider what the future of America may hold.
Hollow Bone
Art as Oracle
May 1 - June 28, 2025
Hollow Bone Art as Oracle invites visitors to explore the transformative power of art as a tool for introspection and guidance. In this exhibition experience, attendees are encouraged to engage with the artworks as they would a deck of tarot cards. With the guidance of a partner, visitors wear a blindfold and are led through the gallery until they intuitively feel drawn to stop and remove their blindfold. In that moment, they are invited to interpret the first artwork they see in regards to their inquiry. Artists include Yazz Atmore, Sarah Tenney, Linda Bishara, Harriet Woodman, Rebecca Peebles, and Faatma Be One.
JayCee Beyale solo show

JayCee Beyale grew up in the Four Corners area of New Mexico and earned a BFA in printmaking from the University of New Mexico. He is a founding member of the Creative Nations Arts Collective at the Dairy Arts Center in Boulder. With a background in street art and graffiti, JayCee blends spray paints and acrylics to create art that fuses technology with Indigenous culture. Music, traditional Indigenous ideologies, and his Buddhist practice influence his work, which reflects themes of movement, unity, and impermanence.
Myth-Function
