Gresham Council Chambers Lobby

1331 NW Eastman Pkwy.

Gresham, OR 97030

Monday - Friday 11 AM - 4 PM

Submission deadline is September 14! 

What nourishes your mind? What sparks that moment of reflection or inspires you to see the world through a different lens? The "Food for Thought" art show invites artists to explore the ideas, symbols, and stories that feed our souls and imaginations.

Whether your work is a literal representation of food or a metaphorical journey into what sustains us, we want to see how you interpret this theme. Is it the comfort of a shared meal, the vibrant colors of fresh produce, or the complex layers of a thought-provoking concept? What will you bring to the table? 

Please note, only two (2) submissions per artist for this show.
