Skull & Bones Exhibition

We Become Holy When We Leave, by Mike Egan.

Curated by Mary Urbas and Arnold Tunstall, this exhibition brings together more than a dozen regional artists who explore skull and skeleton imagery in their work. Featured pieces range from traditional memento mori and folk art to lighthearted, humorous depictions of life and death—each serving as a reminder to make the most of life.

Special Note: Student Show: October 21–30, 2024. Guests are encouraged to dress as skeletons or embrace spooky vibes for the reception on October 24.
