Open Doors offers a glimpse into what is happening behind the studio doors at Bethany Arts Community right now.
This exhibition brings together work created by Bethany artists from 2025 to the present. The intent is to reflect where
each artist is in their practice at this particular moment. These pieces come from current series, ongoing explorations, new directions, and ideas still unfolding. What happens when we enter our studios? What are we thinking about, experimenting with, returning to, or trying for
the first time? What is inspiring us now? By opening our doors, we invite visitors in. Together, these works offer a snapshot of the artists who are creating at Bethany today. These individual practices are brought together by a shared place, creative energy, and community.

Also join us in viewing our collaborative installation! This installation celebrates the beauty of being different while still being
together. Fifty 5 × 5-inch wooden panels were donated and distributed to artists in our community. The only requirement was simple: make sure it is in your voice and create something that is uniquely you. Displayed together, these individual works become one collective
artwork. It is a moment in time that captures who is here now and what each person brings to this community. There is something special about the way we show up at Bethany for ourselves, for our work, and for one another. This installation is a celebration of that shared experience and of the many different creative voices that make this place what it is.
