Jane Dennis and Harry Littell
September 3 to 27, 2026
Mixed media artist Jane Dennis and photographer Harry Littell explore themes surrounding circuses and fairs. Dennis’s paintings and sculptures of circuses depict playful, imagined worlds based on historical research, while Littell’s photographs of county fairs in the Southern Tier present surreal moments drawn from real events. Their different artistic approaches result in a lively and colorful synergy.
The show can be viewed online.
