Meet Our 2026 Emerging Artist Winners

We're so excited to introduce the five artists who will be taking over On The Edge Gallery this year — and honestly, this lineup has us buzzing. Each one brings something totally different to the space, and we can't wait for you to experience their work in person.

Kicking things off is Lisa Schwab, whose oil paintings open May 24th with a reception on May 28th. If you've ever wanted to get lost in lush, richly layered color and detail, Lisa's work is going to be your thing. Her exhibit runs through June 20th and is a genuinely beautiful way to ease into summer.

Right on her heels is David Hyman, opening June 21st with an acrylic show that runs through July 18th. Mark June 25th on your calendar for the opening — David's work is one you'll want to see fresh and in person.

Then comes one of our most visually playful shows of the year. David Henderson works in aerosol and acrylic, and if his photo next to his work is any indication, his exhibit is going to be bold, joyful, and completely unforgettable. His show opens July 19th with a reception July 23rd and runs through August 15th.

Winter Echoes Hill steps in next with a show that feels like a total shift in energy — working in graphite, charcoal, and oil, her work has a depth and intensity that's hard to look away from. Exhibit opens August 16th, reception August 20th, running through September 12th.

And closing out this incredible year is Jackson Kloog, bringing his acrylic work to the gallery September 13th through October 10th. Join us for his opening on September 17th.

Five artists. Five completely different visions. One really great year ahead. Keep an eye on our events page and come celebrate with us — openings are always free, always fun, and always worth your Thursday night.
