Plein Air Painters of Idaho presents their first Virtual Art show featuring artist from across the state of Idaho. The show was juried and awards were given. Some of the art is for sale by the artists.

Creation’s Colors culminates from Elizabeth Orlovich’s artistic endeavor to
“Rebel against a world that seeks to snuff out hope.” Dealing with a chronic invisible illness, she finds hope in sunsets and her relationship with Jesus Christ; painting subjects of joy with all the colors of the world, she works to draw her attention, and now ours, to the beauty of life despite its hardships.

Reception is set for April 2nd from 4:30-6:30 on the 2nd floor of the Student Union Building. It will be free and open to the public, with light refreshments available. Hope to see you there!

This year’s Studio Art cohort has selected the theme of What Makes Us Human as a reflection of their love of hand-processes, an exploration of their identities and lived experiences, and as a defiant expression of their joy for life in the face of a world that is increasingly hostile to our shared humanity. Featuring works by: Ahmed Abouzeid, Ali Henslee, Ilene Antonov, Jordan Dunbar, Josie Carver, Kiera Edington, Marcus Hernandez, Bronwyn Hitchcock, Victor Castro, Ellie Wilson, Amalia Thomas, Gracie Kay Sosa, Casey Stitzel, Nalani Roberts, Gloria Pineda, Sadie Meyer, Rachel Mayhew, Natalie Masterson, Avamarie Madrigal, Audrey Ava Larson, Eden Erryn Hunt, and Jordan Boswell.

Artist reception is Thursday April 16th, 4:30-6:30 pm where light refreshments will be served. Event is free and open to the public.

Join us for the opening reception of Seasons and Soliloquies, a solo exhibition by Zack Thurmond on Thursday, May 7 from 5 to 9 pm at IAG in downtown Boise.

Born in St. Louis and shaped by years in the Mountain West, Thurmond's work is rooted in a deep and enduring connection to place. Largely self-taught, with a BFA from Boise University, his paintings draw from direct observation, often beginning as small plein air studies before expanding into larger studio compositions.
Thurmond's work is held in public and private collections across North America and Europe. He currently lives in Idaho with his wife, two children, and three dogs, and serves as Chief Preparator at the Boise Art Museum.

Join us for an evening of art, conversation, and community in the heart of downtown Boise.
Drinks, food and art provided.
