The colorful works of Judith Linhares depict a playful view of Eden. The scenes depicted make you feel as if you are spying on someone through a telescope and allowed into their secret room.

The works of Tomory Dodge definitely explore abstract art to its fullest, but the results are so intriguing you won't want to stop looking. This seven piece exhibit is on display through April 2, so be sure to add it to visit before then.
