I am pleased to announce that Light Art Space has been awarded a $24,593 grant from the New Mexico Creative Industries Division! We are one of 10 recipients statewide to receive funding. With this grant and additional funds from our fall auction, we will install a new HVAC system to enable year-round programming, including workshops, lectures, and exhibitions. We look forward to offering more workshops and other events in our warmer months. Thank you to our members and the state of New Mexico for supporting the arts in Silver City.
Join us Sunday, May 24th at 3 pm for an artist talk by Robert Brooks. His current exhibition, The Colors of Light, offers the viewer a rich selection of color photographs with subject matter ranging from elegant birds to expansive landscapes.

Light Dreams invites artists to explore light not only as a physical phenomenon, but as an internal, psychological, and symbolic presence. The pairing of light and dreams suggests a space where conscious perception and subconscious experience overlap—where memory, imagination, and emotion shape how light is seen, felt, and interpreted.
Thank you to our sponsor, Freestyle Photo and Imaging Supplies
