Gallery Exhibitions
Ethan Edvenson Sparking Bits
Kader Gallery
Edvanson celebrates the beauty and fragility of human potential in the mixed media exhibition Sparking Bits. Using loose brushwork, line work and text, the artist brings humor to the other side of life.
Dr. James Ringstrom Lineilism
Front Gallery
This exhibition features the animal drawings of the self-named “Lineilist”artist, Dr. James Ring- strom. In “line” with French Pointillism, Ringstrom uses colorful lines of various lengths which are then blended by the viewer’s eye to create one coherent image.
Sarah Nguyen
So They Were Named
Kader Gallery
Nguyen balances abstract and representational forms that reference folklore, nature and aspects of daily life. Using over-sized and hand-cut paper scrolls, the artist reflects on the lives of women named in the Old Testament.

Someplace Good and Deep
Kader Gallery
David Montague
Movement. Balance. Change.
Kader Gallery
This exhibition features works of art that are accompanied by original poetry. Each work reflects on the healing nature of color and how the human spirit can be easily misjudged by brief first impressions.
Movement. Balance. Change., reminiscent of the artist Alexander Calder, provides an alternative take on sculpture in the form of hanging mobiles. Made from stone, metal, and acrylic materials, Montague’s work invites the viewer to interact with the surrounding space through motion.
Whitney Lea Sage Land/Marks of Absence
Front Gallery
Sage tells the stories of Midwestern cities through small panel paintings and “found object” sculptures. The exhibition, entitled Land/
Marks of Absence, centers on the increasing cultural relevance of big industry, suburban migration, and architectural skeletons.
Artist Reception: November 12, 2021

March 2 - April 16 Caitlin Bradford Blue Skies Research
Front Gallery
Katie Walberg
Ludicrous Landscapes: Counter Production
Kader Gallery
Blue Skies Research refers to curiosity-driven research, conducted without a specific or practical application. Bradford’s oil paintings employ the concept of Blue Skies Research by exploring ideas of curiosity, openness, and imperfection. For the artist, each artwork embraces the irregularity of daily life and their memories as a means to visual investigation.
Engaging socio-political ideas of urban design, pollution and natural resource exhaustion, Ludicrous Landscapes explores the complex infrastructure of man-made landscapes. Walberg re-contextualizes common building elements–such as roadways and power grids–into exaggerated realities in the form of drawing and sculpture.
Artist Reception: March 4, 2022
Sangjun Yoo So Near, So Far
Kader Gallery
So Near, So Far is three media installations composed of site-specific data visualization, interactive performance and multiple video screens. The exhibition investigates how the human mind perceives artificiality.
May 25 - July 16 Charna Schwartz Comforts of Clay
Kader Gallery
Marsha Tuchscherer
Close to Home: Everyday Shapes, Patterns, Colors.
Front Gallery
Comforts of Clay celebrates the
fundamental connection to the earth that clay embodies. Schwartz, alluding to the drift-less beauty of southwest Wisconsin, layers a multitude of glazes on each piece to recreate moments of introspection inspired by the land.
Painting the objects, shapes, and colors of everyday life, Tuchscherer creates still lifes of her surroundings. Each oil painting reflects the artist’s discoveries on their northeastern Wisconsin farm and other travels afar.
Catherine Williams Hammer Gams
Kader Gallery
Hammer Gams explores the social conundrum of wanting to be seen while also wanting to remain anonymous. Experimenting with light and composition, Williams focuses on portrait photography and uses herself as a model as a way to grapple with this question of visibility.
Artist Reception: May 27, 2022

Mauree Childress
Beauty Beyond Disability
Front Gallery
Childress’s exhibition, Beauty Beyond Disability, paintings are an homage to the “groundscapes”
beneath us. Living with a mobile disability, the artist brings attention to the aesthetic value of the bumps, cracks, and textured surfaces we stand, walk, roll, or sit on and how they connect us to the earth.
Carole Spelić
The Elect and the Damned
Kader Gallery
Susan Morrison JUXTAPOSITION
Kader Gallery
The Elect and the Damned features portraits of the artist’s friends personifying biblical characters of the angel, the demon, and a hell-bound human. Referencing a 16th-century painting of a similar title by Luca Signorelli, Spelić uses watercolor, wax crayon, and pencil to create contemporary portraits inspired by early Renaissance frescoes.
JUXTAPOSITION features large-scale steel and fiber sculptures which, for the artist, represents the constant flux of motion and emotions throughout existance. Morrison’s choice of materials alludes to this idea by juxtaposing 2D and 3D–solid and soft.
Nicolas Darcourt Filters and Signals
Kader Gallery
Roger Boulay Filters and Signals
Kader Gallery
Lois Peterson Filters and Signals
Kader Gallery
The exhibition Filters and Signals includes multi-media works by Lois Peterson, Nicolas Darcourt, and Roger Boulay. By combining multiple sculptural fragments from each artist, Darcourt aims to suspend the perception and recognition of form, while Peterson focuses on natural environments that have been forgotten or discarded–such as the Arctics, savannahs, and prairies. Finally, the artist, Boulay, explores the fugitive moment between chaos and order as the Earth becomes an uninhabitable environment.

The Woods are Lovely, Dark and Deep
highlights Scheckel’s connection to the natural world and how it relates to her personal relationships. The imagery in each work references Scheckel’s understanding of the time spent with friends across challenging and rewarding terrains.
Iowa Combines examines the complex metaphysical relationship machines,
architecture and other technological devices have with humans. Nordman uses collage to combine elements of architecture, machinery, and historical sights into one image which reveals a lingering human presence.

Love, Loss, and What I Wore is a play written by Nora Ephron and Delia Ephron based on the 1995 book of the same name by Ilene Beckerman. This funny and poignant theatrical event uses clothing, accessories and the memories they trigger to tell an intimate collection of stories about relationships and wardrobes and at times the interaction of the two, using the female wardrobe as a time capsule of a woman’s life.
Directed by Anne Drecktrah.

Willy Porter continues on a musical and personal odyssey spanning over two decades, 11 albums, and multiple continents. His journey has been defined by an inquisitive love for humanity and the language that describes what we all hold to be true. Porter’s songs weave a universal perspective about the questions, struggles, and triumphs of human existence. His live shows are guitar-driven grit, soul, silence and muscle– at times electrifying, dynamic, and unique in the way that Porter’s voice blends and fuses with his fret work.

The Best of Prairie Smoke ~ 25 Years of Music
The music of Prairie Smoke includes traditional American and Celtic folk music and original songs. Prairie Smoke is composed of Tom Walter on guitar, Jon Stuttgen on bass, Rita Koch- Thometz on flute, Betsy Knowles on fiddle and Erin Hussey on dulcimer. Their music began with a decidedly folk flavor before being spiced up with a little Celtic charm. In time, some of their original music, truly American folk, was added to their library, giving their music a wonderfully personal touch.
Prairie Smoke
While the Pump House Dayton Theater renovation was planned before the pandemic shut down, it was the silver lining at a time when the theater went dark and ticket sales ceased. Updated renovation features include new herringbone flooring, telescopic retractable seating, floor seats, accent cove lighting that highlights the original wood ceiling, dimmable LED
chandeliers, architectural details, and automatic black out shades that can also let the light in. We invite you to experience our newly renovated theater in person. We can’t wait to see you!
We extend our thanks to Roger Grant who photographed the renovation process.
