The power of words cannot be overstated. When these words are written and recorded, they carry even more weight. What then, can be the effect of combining written language with visual language? This exhibition asked the artist - What happens at the intersection of the visual arts and the literal arts? The combination of these expressions is utilized in the work of these artists by focusing on text, whether it is used boldly, subtly, texturally, literally, or just as inspiration.

Context includes artwork in all media, and showcases the work of over 50 artists from across the US and Canada. 

Hours are Tuesday through Thursday 10 am to 8 pm, Friday and Saturday 10 am to 5 pm, and Sunday noon to 4 pm.  Admission is free, and donations are welcome.
