SUMMARY:2026 Spring Exhibitions
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nWe’re unveiling 5 NEW Spring Exhibitions on May 14\, 5-8:30 pm at Summit Artspace. Spring Exhibitions will be open during our public hours\, Friday & Saturday\, from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm. \nExhibitions on view include: \nBetty and Howard Taylor Main Gallery \n“Scorporation” | Aaron D. Williams\nContinuing the Aawful Aaron (AAW) saga and serving as the second arc\, Scorporation by Aaron D. Williams introduces new perspectives and conversations while using mixed media such as alcohol markers\, colored pencil\, print\, and video. Scorporation touches on the overall approach\, attitude\, and ethos of how Williams operates creatively. Combining the ideas of resilience and resourcefulness with the notion of turning oneself into an entity-like being as a survival tool in a hyper-capitalistic society. Highlighting how history stands as a testament to the conversations of today and\, in connecting the dots to our identity\, he hints at what’s to come. \nWelcome Gallery \n“New B.O.R.N” |Aaron Porter \nNew B.O.R.N consists of artworks from Kent State University student\, Aaron Porter. In the exhibition\, visitors will see the world through Porter’s eyes showcasing colorful\, graphic compositions created using acrylic paint\, acrylic markers\, and conceptual imagery. Reflecting the cultural and societal realities in the world which he navigates\, he invites viewers to immerse themselves in his thought-provoking\, colorful narratives. \nIntersections Gallery \n“Medina County Art League Exhibition”| Group Exhibition \nThis exhibition of artwork from Medina County Art League members features a span of media and subjects from artists working at all points in their careers. The group is excited to show work outside of Medina County\, as many of the League’s members reside across Northeast Ohio. \nForum Gallery \n“Artists of Rubber City Juried Exhibition” \nArtists of Rubber City hosts its traditional juried show of artists from Summit and neighboring counties. The show is juried by a Northeast Ohio–based artist working across a wide range of media\, Michael Davis Seng\, who is the Associate Director of Door 2 Art Studio in Hudson\, Ohio. The exhibition represents current work by many of the region’s most talented artists.\n***Awards ceremony at 6 pm! \n“what was returns slowly” | Hannah Bates \nHannah Bates explores the wildness of post-industrial landscapes through direct engagement with materials and place in this solo exhibition. Collecting materials from forests\, shorelines\, and urban areas\, she gathers objects that highlight the relationship between human-made and natural elements\, then transforms them into lasting sculptural forms. Bates examines the balance between permanence and impermanence\, the found and the fabricated\, and decay and regeneration. She invites viewers to develop a slower\, more intimate connection with materials and local ecosystems. \n
