In Deep Water, a collaborative art project focused on water and our current environmental crisis. Two artists, one a printmaker (Jami Taback, Beach Lake, PA) and one a papermaker (Jane Ingram Allen, Northern California), working together since August 2021, have produced a large scale collaborative mixed-media art installation about our current climate change crisis with a focus on water, the most essential requirement for life.

On View: June 28 – August 3

Opening Reception: June 28, 4-6pm

Coffee and Conversation with Douglas Shindler: Friday, July 18th, 6pm

Douglas Shindler’s (Sullivan County, NY), work addresses themes of violence, street life, sport, and community. His images center the underrepresented and the overlooked. Shindler’s gestural impasto paintings with expressive and rich tones are narrative driven and focus on figures, their actions, and their stories. They take inspiration from hip hop lyrics, Black culture, and the vast array of different Black experiences within the diaspora.

About DVAA: DVAA serves as a home in the Upper Delaware Valley and Sullivan Catskills Region, giving artists platforms to share their voices in our galleries, on our stages, and at our festivals, including Riverfest in July and the Big Eddy Film Festival held every September.
