2027 Member Galleries


2027 Upcoming Member Shows for the Cottonwood and Ponderosa Member Galleries

Shadows: January 12 – March 5

Shadows are created when an object blocks a source of light, but not all objects are created equal. A solid object blocks all light and casts a clear, dark shadow while a frosted object like glass casts a more diffuse and fainter shadow. But what happens to shadows if there are multiple light sources from different angles? What do the shadows hide or what do they reveal? Come see what MCA artists reveal in the shadows in our first exhibit of 2027!


Six & Six: March 9 – May 1

Chosen by lottery, 12 MCA member artists have been chosen to display whatever art they would like on their own personal section of wall. The first 6 artists will be showcased in mid-March through Mid-April, then another 6 artists from mid-April to mid-May.


Blooms: May 4 – July 9

The world comes alive in spring and summer with buds, flowers and blooms, especially here in Colorado. Explore an explosion of flora as our artists across the state capture the beauty of blooms.


The Red Show: July 13 – September 10

MCA artists have been asked to submit any type of work they want – no theme, all mediums – so long as the color red is prominent in their work. We are excited by this concept as we will be carrying this theme through the color spectrum in years to come.


What Remains: September 14 – November 12

As time goes on and progress leads to new and better advancements in everything, the old things shaped by the hand of man get left behind, abandoned or forgotten. It this exhibit, MCA artist will capture what remains of those abandoned, ruined or forgotten people, places and things … echoes from a past age.


Holiday Marketplace III: November 16 – January 7

Western Colorado Artists will brighten the season with their offerings of fine art pieces — from fabric art, ceramics and paintings, to jewelry, cards and more ­– for the holidays, making perfect gifts for family and friends.
