Closing Reception: Saturday, August 30, 2-5pm

On View: August 9 - 30, 2025

The Summer Salon returns for its 3rd year since launching in 2023! This lightly curated show is an excellent opportunity for emerging and beginner artists to exhibit and grow in their artistic practice. For many people who have shown at past Summer Salons, this is their first public exhibition. 

Exhibition will include 2D and 3D arts of all mediums.

Brian David Johnson, Cloud Tree’s founder and lead curator, has always espoused a personal philosophy that there is an inherent value in getting out there, doing things and engaging with opportunities related to one’s artistic practice. The Summer Salon was designed to facilitate that type of opportunity. While sales are important, there is something to be said for engaging with the process of exhibiting your work for the first time and all that comes along with that. A big part is meeting other creatives with varying degrees of experience for mutual support, encouragement and inspiration. We believe this is a special opportunity for everyone. The event also helps support this special creative space, which has helped stir the pot of community for the past 9 years. We look forward to both sessions, see you there!
