* This exhibition runs Dec. 20, 2025–Jan. 25, 2026, with a public reception on Sun., Jan. 11. * Michael G. Stewart has always looked at the world in his off-kilter way, and this show presents his unique “Inner Visions.” Rooted in the real, but bordered by the decidedly surreal, Michael’s art is whimsical, weird, and sometimes unnerving. Be his guest as he passes through a slightly cracked lens into a landscape both familiar and out of this world.
