PREVIOUS EXHIBIT
Our December 2022 exhibit was the
new works of SSAG founder and artist, Genece Hamby. The solo exhibit was
the inspiration for re-opening the space
in 2023 as an artist incubator, providing
artists with an opportunity to not only have a 6-week solo exhibition--but to have personal mentoring to help them grow professionally as artists.

-
Builds excitement and positive energy around your profile and art.
-
Motivates and challenges you to create a series of works that are cohesive and based on a theme.
-
Gives you an opportunity to learn new skills in the ‘business’ of art (marketing, etc).
