We are excited to be hosting our third gallery show opening on October 17, 2025 at our Photo Opp studio space!

After Hours will be a collection images that will explore the liminal space between day and night: where mystery, intimacy, rebellion, rest, and revelation reside. From the solitude of midnight streets to the buzz of nightlife, from quiet reflection to secret rendezvous, our After Hours gallery reveals what’s hidden in plain sight after the world stops watching.

The gallery will also showcase images from local, featuring three local photographers; Alex Simpson, Claire Bruder, and MW Gardo. The gallery will also showcase images from our greater community through a submission and judging process.

Join us for an evening celebrating the arts and community!
