THE DALLES — The Dalles Art Center invites community members to experience “Elemental: Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Spirit,” a dynamic open exhibition exploring the fundamental forces that shape our world and inner lives. The showcase opens with a free-to-the-public reception on Jan. 29, from 5–7 p.m., featuring artwork by regional artists working across a wide range of media, and will close on March 7.

“Elemental” brings together interpretations of the natural elements and the unseen spirit that connects them, offering visitors a rich and varied visual experience. From grounded reflections on land and water to expressive responses to movement, transformation, and energy, the exhibit highlights both personal and universal relationships with the elements.
