🚧 New Sidewalk Alert 🚧

Here at Elysian, we feel strongly that it’s important to create community that includes EVERYONE. This includes having an ASL Student Interpreter for our awards ceremony.

So please, Don’t mind the mess as our crew pours a brand new sidewalk this week, to ensure our new location is completely accessible.

We look forward to seeing you at our Soft Opening this Saturday & for the Grand Re-Opening June 6th. 🎨😁

We’re excited to introduce Alex Johnmeyer as the judge for The Color of Music at Elysian Gallery 🎨🎶

Alex Johnmeyer is an award-winning multidisciplinary artist based in St. Louis whose work blends vibrant realism, layered texture, pop culture, and deeply personal storytelling. Working across oil, watercolor, and acrylic, his paintings explore themes of nostalgia, identity, authenticity, and human connection.

In addition to an extensive exhibition history throughout the St. Louis region, Alex has received numerous honors including St. Louis Magazine’s “Best Fine Artist” and the “Award of Excellence in Artistry” from the St. Louis City Recorder of Deeds.

Beyond his studio practice, Alex is also a passionate advocate for community arts engagement, LGBTQ+ visibility, and creative collaboration throughout the region.

🏆 Exhibition awards will be announced at 7 PM during the opening reception on June 6 at Elysian Gallery.
