Main Exhibition curated by TK Smith
Artist Salon organized by Cam Clark, Exhibitions Fellow

Stove Works’ annual fundraiser encourages the outlandish, the extreme, or jeans! Come as your boldest self in support of Art and Artists!

This year's Resident Review, Held by a Blessing, Bound by a Curse, is curated by TK Smith, who curated Hand to Mouth in 2024. In addition to the incredible works on view from our 2026 Artists-in-Residence and Local Artists, we’ll have tunes from DJMCPRO, a special performance, an award for best dressed, and more!

The theme for this year’s RED DOT exhibition and soirée is “Held by a Blessing, Bound by a Curse.” Your wardrobe inspiration is endless, especially if you're coming in pairs! Think oxymorons (Jumbo Shrimp), paradoxes (Schrödinger’s cat), contradictions (“I’m lying right now”), contronyms (to bolt), objects with conflicting meanings (the ourobros), and classic oppositions (good vs. evil). Or you could just go with our classic theme “Met Gala or Parody of Met Gala.”

GA, VIP, and Group tickets available!
