Intervals
a group exhibition from the Ely Center’s Curatorial and Programming Advisory Committee
Exhibition Dates: February 8 - April 12, 2026
Opening Reception: Sunday, February 8, 1-3pm
Intervals mark both pauses and beginnings. Presented by the volunteer artists and curators who make up Ely Center’s Curatorial and Program Advisory Committee, this group exhibition reflects on the spaces between places and moments of change. This invitational exhibition, where our incumbent committee invited artists to join them, responds to another interval, a temporary relocation of our gallery.
The title speaks to these in-between conditions—a break, a measure of time, or a structural division; something that separates while also connecting. Here, it gestures toward the shifting site of the gallery, the dual positions held by artist-curators, and the transition into the organization’s next decade. Intervals is a reflection on where we have been and an opening toward what is to come.
The works in Intervals respond to ideas of construction, duration, conversations, and connectedness. Together, the works support the idea of the Ely Center as a fixed container and a living framework shaped by collective effort. In this moment of temporary architecture and long-term vision, Intervals affirms the importance of art, volunteer labor, shared authorship, and the spaces we build together.
