Grown-ups, it's time to stretch those creative muscles! This October, design and make your own stuffed “monster” doll! Artist Abby Aspen will lead this class for students ages 18+.

Quilts and storytelling have always been interwoven. This year, our beloved annual exhibition features story quilts from 53 artists from all over the country and is on display at both Vision Gallery and the Chandler Center for the Arts.

With Creative Drive, we are bringing art from the streets of Chandler into the gallery! To celebrate the 16 new traffic control box wraps we installed in 2021, we invited the participating artists to exhibit an artwork at Vision Gallery. The resulting exhibition is one that illustrates the range of creative talent in this project that celebrates the vibrancy and welcoming attitude of Chandler.

Over the last year and a half, the pandemic has left many people in emotional limbo. Through her obsessive creation process, artist Lex Gjurasic actively strives towards radical happiness and hopes that others might also find levity and a path to joy - so c'mon and get happy, y'all!

Humor plays an essential role in Diego Perez’s artistic practice, but the details and skill in his work are no laughing matter. In this absurd exhibition, Perez’s imagination runs wild as he depicts everyday people with headgear made of canaries to traffic cones to everything in between.
