"Not(h)ing Gold" opening reception

This exhibition features artworks responding to Robert Frost’s poem Nothing Gold Can Stay. The fifteen artists explore dichotomies of beauty and decay, the inevitability of time, and transformation. This exhibition honors Frost’s poem and also notes the moments of delight and turbulence that are a part of being an artist. The artists involved came together to celebrate the seasons of Spring and Summer before they leave us again.

Dora Agbas, Lauren Bass, Jess Belangee-Englert, Sadie Goll, Sammie Jane Hardewig, Emma Hixson, Tiana Nanayo Kuʻuleialoha Honda, Hannah Lindo, Tristan Lindo, Gen Louise, Kalie Love, Taylor Miller, Quinn Pagona, Nathan Pickerell, SK Reed

Nothing Gold Can Stay

“Nature’s first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf’s a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay.”

-Robert Frost (1874-1963)
