Jim Zimpel, Associate Dean of the College of Arts & Architecture and an Associate Professor of Sculpture + Extended Media at Montana State University in Bozeman presents a visual art exhibition in the discipline of Sculpture at the SFCC Fine Art Gallery. Zimpel states, “My work constructs factual and imaginary entry points and rituals-they are the means to process, explore and understand things that are actually, or perceived as, inaccessible.”

Heatherann Woods' debut solo exhibition explores perspective and perception in atmospheric oil paintings by capturing ephemeral light from familiar views in the Spokane region. She invites the viewer to not only step into the space and be moved, but also engage with fellow viewers, initiating conversations, by questioning the concept of "realism" and how we project expectations instead of receive information based on personal experience.

All community members are invited to monthly open house events with district leaders.
