Superhappyfuntime represents six fine artists working in a variety of media: textiles, video, photography, painting, and sculpture. Each piece exudes an element of play either in its form, color, or subject matter, without sacrificing the reflective principles from which the work was born. Please join us in this colorful evening of fun and fine art as we celebrate artistic experimentation and life long play.

"Play energizes and enlivens us. It eases our burdens, renews a natural sense of optimism, and opens us up to new possibilities. Play sculpts our brain; it makes us smarter and more adaptable. Humans are the biggest players of all, specially designed by nature to play throughout our long lives." - The National Institue For Play
