To sow seeds, nurture growth, and enjoy the bounty of one’s investment of energy. This process of taking bloom can be experienced in the world of horticulture, creativity and humanity. This exhibit is an exploration of all that we sow here at the WAE Center and the many ways that fruit, flowers, hearts, minds and skills subsequently flourish.

A creative, intentionally or unintentionally, has ‘to be determined’ to be heard. Determination drives talent, dedication, and a strong work ethic. A creative group can nurture one’s artistic well-being and determine the opportunities that might yet be taken. Join the New Jersey Art Association for this exhibit that speaks to the power of an art community to inspire and thrive.

Heidi Gallery at JSDD is proud to announce the annual juried exhibition, The WAE Open – 2024. The WAE Open is not thematic; rather, the exhibition seeks to showcase the highest quality visual art being made by established, emerging, and underrepresented artists.

Featuring a broad range of mediums, textures, and explosive colors we welcome you to the wide-open world of the WAE creative! All work is on sale and all sales benefit both individual artists and the WAE Center program.

Summer Symbiosis is a collaborative exhibit featuring these two organizations, fifty artists, and innumerable possibilities. It celebrates the artists of both organizations as well as the long-established relationship between them.

Heidi Gallery invited artists working in the medium of fiber, wholly or as a component of their original work to submit to this first fiber focused exhibit, Threads.
