Beloit Art Center Opens 25th Anniversary Exhibition in June

6/5/2025

 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Beloit, Wisconsin – Beloit Art Center announces June exhibits.
 
Beloit Art Center is pleased to announce An Evening of Art in Downtown Beloit featuring  our 25th Anniversary Finding Creativity Within exhibit which will open with a First Friday Gallery Reception on June 6th, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m., and run through July 24th. A gallery talk featuring the artists will be held at 7:00 p.m. An opening reception for the 67th Beloit and Vicinity Exhibit at the Wright Museum of Art at Beloit College will also be held from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m.

Juried artwork featuring artists who have exhibited at Beloit Art Center over the past quarter century will be on display in both the Sveum Gallery and the Members Gallery. Nearly 90 pieces of art from nearly 50 artists will be on display, representing exhibitions from 2000 to 2025 and several in memoriam pieces loaned by private collectors will be included. Media will include watercolor, acrylic, oil, ink, colored pencil, charcoal, wood and stone sculpture, film and digital photography, pottery, fiber, mosaic, collage, and assemblage. Genres range from traditional, to whimsical, to dark art, showcasing a broad spectrum of the work featured over the years. An encore exhibit of some of the featured art will be on display at Blue Moon Gallery in Grayslake, Illinois from August 2nd to the 23rd. We are proud to honor the artists who have shaped the Beloit Art Center’s creative legacy and to celebrate the value of arts in the Beloit Community. Thank you to our June and July Sveum Gallery sponsor Nowlan Personal Injury Law.

The artwork of Molly Dillon will be on display in Bell Gallery for the month of June only. Dillon’s mixed media works use classic advertising, movie, and comic book imagery derived from the 1950s through the 1980s, combined with patterns and colors reminiscent of the same period to create a narrative. “Much of my art… also includes primitive, folk, and tribal art and designs from across the world”. Thank you to our June Bell Gallery sponsor I-43 Storage.
