  • Showcasing the work of Marla Luttrell - Friday, June 6th from 6:00 - 8:00

    This gallery exhibition has been thoughtfully curated by gallery owner John Ross Palmer and features the work of Houston-based artist Marla Luttrell. Known for her passion for painting en plein air, Luttrell beautifully captures the essence of the natural world. Her alla prima technique brings a sense of immediacy and movement to each piece, with light and wind rendered so vividly they feel almost tangible.

  • Group Exhibition - June 21st from 2:00 - 4:00

    In celebration of Pride Month, BLOC Foundation proudly presents Unboxed: Beyond the Binary, an art exhibition honoring the vibrant creativity and expansive identities within the LGBTQ+ community. This multigenerational show features artwork from LGBTQ+ artists of all ages, including a special collaboration with Tony’s Place Youth, whose powerful and heartfelt work captures the resilience and imagination of queer youth.

    This open call exhibition invites viewers to explore the many ways LGBTQ+ individuals express identity, challenge norms and create space for themselves and others through painting, photography, mixed media, and more. From emerging voices to seasoned creators, Unboxed: Beyond the Binary is a bold celebration of authenticity, visibility, and the limitless spectrum of queer expression.
