Happening Now
Beyond the Lamplight + Steadfast Gallery
Beyond the Lamplight x Steadfast Gallery - A Group Exhibition On View Now through October 31st
Beyond the Lamplight x Steadfast Gallery celebrates the creativity of current and former Pixar artists alongside the wide range of talents from artists at Steadfast Gallery.
This year, Beyond the Lamplight enters a new chapter through its first collaboration with Steadfast Gallery and its first exhibition in the new RCCD Art Space in Emeryville. Bringing together current and former Pixar artists with artists from Steadfast Gallery, the exhibition showcases a wide range of talents, perspectives, styles, and creative disciplines from overlapping artistic communities.
From personal projects and independent works to explorations beyond the artists’ everyday creative practices, Beyond the Lamplight x Steadfast Gallery is a celebration of the creativity that emerges when artists are given the space to create on their own terms.
