Moments Captured featuring Gay Sybert
August 14 - September 23
Opening Reception:  Friday, August 14, 5:30 - 7:30 PM

Gay Sybert's pastel and mixed-media paintings capture the beauty of everyday life, from landscapes and nature to horses and still lifes.  Blending representational subjects with playful backgrounds, Gay's paintings result in colorful, expressive paintings that reflect her joyful approach to art.

The SAA Collective is excited to present its newest featured space, the Underground Gallery. This exhibition space is dedicated to enhancing the community's art experience by exhibiting a wide variety of artists, media, and styles from both our collective members and Central Illinois artists.

Call For Entry Opportunities:  The Underground organizes two annual community group exhibitions: one in the spring and another in the fall. Additionally, we welcome applications from artists interested in exhibiting a solo or group show. Each artist participating in a group application must complete the form and specify the proposed members in the comments section.

​All group or solo show opportunities will be scheduled to begin in 2028 at this time.
