Ocean Wonders Show at City Hall

Open until August 12, first floor of the city building.

About the Show

A panel of judges selected this collection for its vivid capture of ocean moods and scenes. The exhibit spans paintings, photographs, mixed‑media pieces, and hand‑crafted sculptures that depict shifting coastlines and maritime life. With contributions from over twenty artists, the show offers a wide array of styles and perspectives.

Highlighted Artist: Jody Nelson

• Medium: Collage, paint, pastel
• Theme: The emotional depth of the ocean
• Nelson’s work balances calm and motion, using texture to evoke both memory and movement. She blends warm and cool colors across water, sky, and clouds, creating a visual rhythm that invites viewers to pause and reflect.

Why It Matters

The exhibition encourages visitors to contemplate humanity’s relationship with the sea— from everyday interactions to deeper philosophical reflections. By merging diverse media and tones, Seascapes presents a fresh perspective on familiar waters, inspiring exploration of both feelings and places.
