Exhibitions


Duality
A Juried Art Exhibit at Studio C
Every story has two sides.
Duality features artwork that explores contrast and balance — light and dark, calm and chaos, natural and manmade, strength and fragility. Through a wide range of styles and subjects, artists examine how opposing forces shape the way we see and experience the world.
From landscapes and portraits to abstract and sculptural works, this exhibit invites viewers to consider where tension exists — and where harmony can be found.

Me, Myself, and Art
Me, Myself, and Art features self-portraits by members of the Frankfort Arts Association, offering a range of perspectives on identity and self-expression. Some works present recognizable likenesses, while others use symbolism, abstraction, memory, or emotion to represent the artist.
Installed on FAA’s Gallery Wall inside Village Hall, the exhibit invites viewers to consider the many ways artists choose to see—and share—themselves.
