“TRANSCENDENCE: BREAKING BOUNDARIES” IN THE FIRST FLOOR GALLERY

The City of Santa Clarita is thrilled to announce the opening of its latest art exhibition, “Transcendence: Breaking Boundaries,” in the First Floor Gallery within Santa Clarita’s City Hall (23920 Valencia Boulevard). This showcase will run from January 12 through March 6, with a special reception event planned for Friday, January 19, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Curated with the intent to push beyond the expected, “Transcendence: Breaking Boundaries” showcases a diverse range of artwork by artists from Santa Clarita and Greater Los Angeles. Each piece serves as a narrative about overcoming and redefining the constructs that confine society’s norms and perceptions. This exhibition aims to question, transform and lead the public into introspective dialogue. These works collectively beckon viewers to embrace new perspectives from the deeply personal to the widely societal.

Please join the City for an evening to discuss the featured artwork and get to know the artists behind the original pieces on Friday, January 19, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the First Floor Gallery. Enjoy light refreshments and live music throughout the evening.
