Sarah Mizer is an artist who works in glass and on paper. In her work, she explores themes of time and fragility. Light itself is one of the materials Sarah works with, both in glass and on paper. And her beautiful gallery, Alma’s, uses the abundant light pouring in through the enormous storefront windows to great effect, showing off the beautiful things inside to their full advantage. The gallery combines handmade everyday objects and adornments with fine craft. A visit with Sarah at Alma’s is such a pleasure. Sarah is a fantastically generous tour guide for artists and works on display. She engages the visitor on a deeper level with the work every time, and here she takes us on a tour of her latest exhibition, In Season. This show celebrates food. Each of the artists uses food imagery as a tool for communicating more deeply with the viewer. It is a funny, gorgeous, exquisitely crafted and profound show.

Growing Up in Civil Rights Richmond: A Community Remembers pairs oral histories with vibrant, large-scale portraits of 30 Richmond, Virginia, residents whose lives were altered by their experiences as children and youth during the civil rights movement. The portraits are a collaboration between photographer Brian Palmer and the sitter - each person has clearly chosen the way in which he or she wants to be seen, and a visitor to the galleries cannot dismiss these powerful people and their courage and determination. Each is accompanied by excerpts from interviews conducted by UR professor Laura Browder as she spoke with participants about their personal experiences. Growing Up in Civil Rights Richmond shines a beautiful light on the importance of honest conversations about the ways in which race shapes our experiences. Through these portraits and the accompanying stories, the participants are reclaiming African American history and then connecting it to the rest of Richmond history in innovative and wonderful ways.
