High Street Gallery - Grand Opening

OCSA has remodeled the school's original theater stage into the beautiful High Street Gallery! The art reception celebrated the transformation of space with the inaugural exhibition, Art About Agriculture: RESOURCEful, from Oregon State University Agriculture Department, on display at it's final touring location through November 9th, 2024. The 41st annual exhibition, Directing Curator Owen Premore has collaborated with OCSA to provide access specifically highlighting agriculture through art, representing rural spaces beautifully presented in rural Oregon.

Also highlighted in the smaller, Mini-Guggenheim gallery is long term artist in residence, Kelley Anderson. Her acrylic paintings fill the room with bright, fun subjects ranging from the coast to floral and portraiture.

Many people and organizations were vital in making this art reception and the High Street Gallery possible for all generations to enjoy. Special thanks to Matt Wilson, Daniel Heffron, Travel Oregon for the generous matching grant, Owen Premore, Sean Sisson, Denise Rice, Celeste Anderle, Mary Grace Brogdon, Dave Porter, Ben Hill, John Fairhurst, Nathan Baumgartner, Bob Free, Clayton Wilson, Autumn & Olivia Adams, Mari Sahm, Mike Morrow, Scott Lewis, Erin Dunn, Darlene Ash, Cody, Kyle Barnes, KDUN Radio and OCSA Board Members Jill Nelson, Elba England, and Vince Adams.
