Opening Reception Tickets Available Here

Coordinates of Belonging presents a group of artists and land-based practitioners who share bodies of knowledge celebrating slow, curious relationships with land, with spacetime, and with each other.

Aleyah Austin, Stephanie Barlow, Kim Beck, Stuart Hyatt, Meris Drew, Ellery Diaz, Lalana Fedorschak, Dana Lynn Harper, Maura Jasper, James R. McKenna, Chris Merritt, Rebekah Nolan, Shamira, Kevin Allison, Danicia Monét Malone, Max Trumpower, and Seneca Weintraut.

Presented off-site in verdant gardens and intimate cottage spaces, the exhibition features sculpture, painting, ceramic, textile, video, and sound works. This third annual group exhibition for the summer solstice calls attention to acts of personal and collective reorientation and recovery, with artworks and public programs that position yearning and abstract storytelling as critical compasses for belonging.

Opening night marks the eve of the first astronomical day of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. At 7:00pm, we'll gather outside the cottage for a ceremonial flag-raising with artist Kim Beck and an accompanying composition by Stuart Hyatt. Enjoy golden hour views of the property. Stay late and join us in the meadow for the lightning bug firework show. The solstice occurs at 4:24 a.m. Sunday, June 21st.

COORDINATES OF BELONGING is on view June 20 — July 19, 2026.
Admission is by ticket only. Following the opening reception, exhibition events, artist-led programs, and viewing appointments are ticketed separately and listed here as announced.

COMPANION will be in touch ahead of the solstice weekend with detailed attendance and parking information.
