A New Show Springs to Life at The Space In-Between . . .

Winter gives way to spring at the Space In-Between, with a dazzling collection of colorful pastels by Maureen McKinley and Susan Piper.

Soft pastel art is created with sticks of pure, powdery pigment held together by a binder, which is drawn and blended on a textured surface, creating layered, dreamy images saturated with vibrant color.

You can enjoy Maureen’s and Susan’s work any Monday or Wednesday evening from 5:30-6:30 pm. To schedule a viewing at your convenience, just leave a message at 269-861-0030.

Take Your Mind Off Winter . . .

We have warm summer days waiting for you at The Space In-Between, where you’ll find an amazing collection of Michigan lily pad paintings by artist Alli Farkas. These large canvases will transport you to serene waterways filled with radiant color – you’ll feel the sun on your cheeks and hear the lilting whirr of dragonflies.

Meet Alli and learn about the creation of her “Sky Pad” series during show's reception on Friday, December 12th from 5-8 pm at 196 Water Street in Benton Harbor. You'll enjoy light refreshments and hors d'oeuvres, and the opportunity to celebrate the holiday season during the Benton Harbor Art Association's Winter Art Hop, which runs concurrently.

If you can't make the reception, you can enjoy Sky Pads any Monday or Wednesday evening from 5:30-6:30 pm, or just leave a message at 269-861-0030 to schedule a viewing at your convenience.

We’re Combining Water, Wood, and Stone at The Space In-Between

The fall show at The Space In-Between is a delightful mélange of natural and man-made forms, featuring oil and watercolor paintings of the Lake Michigan shoreline by David Baker, and photography of Benton Harbor’s streets and architecture by John Gatto.

David Baker’s fanciful Faerie Ring watercolors depict small arrangements of forms created by unknown artists, all discovered while walking the shoreline. David’s oil paintings of lake shore landscapes are graphically powerful, with deep yet nuanced colors that invite you to step into them.

John Gatto’s photography shows that the city of Benton Harbor is full of aesthetic surprises, history, and vision: all you need to do is open your eyes.

Browse the show Monday and Wednesday evenings from 5:30 to 6:30 pm, or schedule a tour at your convenience by leaving a message at 269-861-0030.

Making Cyanotypes at the Children's Art Fair!

Susan Plee, the exhibiting artist at The Space In-Between, spent Saturday showing kids how to make cyanotypes at the Benton Harbor Children's Art Fair. With stencils in hand and adequate sunshine, the kids had great fun creating their own artistic prints.

Susan has her own selection of cyanotypes on display right now at The Space In-Between, and it's a show you don't want to miss. The gallery is open for browsing Monday and Wednesday evenings from 5:30-6:30 pm, or you can schedule a tour at your convenience by leaving a message at 269-861-0030.
