Events for November 4, 2024

At the City of Chandler, we know that creativity is a key quality in getting our jobs done well. For many of us, creativity also spills into what we do when we clock out, from nurturing relaxing hobbies to developing skills in a craft and finding solace through artistic expression. With over 50 artworks from 27 artists, this exhibition includes painting, photography, ceramics, and more. Off the Clock celebrates the creative talents of our fellow City employees that enrich our work every day.

In her intricately colored and textured paper quilts, artist Sami Lange delves into the often heavy, powerful, and beautiful loads women and parents carry. The volume of stitches and thousands of hand-cut, hand-dyed individual paper pieces in each work represent the little decisions that allow us to create paths that resonate with our core identities.
