THE DIRECTORY CONNECTS
The Communal Hallucination Project is an experiment in collective perception, memory, and the liminal space between the physical and the imagined. Rooted in surrealism, analog mysticism, and spiritual mechanics, We operate as a fragmented transmission: part installation, part auditory ritual, and part speculative world-building.

Seeny X Lawless
Dylan Seeney and Branden Lawless are emerging ceramic artists from Wichita whose collaborative exhibition explores the raw and expressive spirit of skate culture, identity, and alternative lifestyles. Blending a grungy, post-apocalyptic aesthetic with futuristic undertones, their sculptures feature personified characters that range anywhere from anthropomorphic rodents to mythical and invented creatures. Drawing inspiration from underground fashion, franchise brands, and urban life, their ceramic works reflect a world that is playful, chaotic, and defiantly unrefined. Together, they seek to create an exhibition that may challenge societal norms while celebrating the grit and creativity of counterculture.
Surviving Japan
From the artist:
This collection covers a selection of downtown Tokyo and Haneda International Airport. Creating these works marked the culmination of decades of multi-medium training and over fifty thousand hours of practicum on the ground. Hand carrying and operating all of the cameras, lenses, physical film, and support accessories over a twelve thousand mile/seventy hour roundtrip journey nearly killed me and profoundly changed me forever

Rooted In Reciprocity: Echoes from the Garden
A collaborative eco-installation, featuring artwork by Dr. Lori J. Santos with contributions from K-12 art students and their art teachers.
Happening Later This Month at Harvester Arts:
Local Abundance Productions facilitates an artist series at Harvester Arts celebrating creativity, individuality, and the curiosity of artistic process.
At HUNGRY, artists get 5–10 minutes to share what they’re working on — whether it’s a work-in-progress, a bold experiment, or something deeply personal. After a short intermission, the host leads a talkback between the audience and the artists.
Join us for the next event on August 22! Expect an evening full of movement, music, storytelling, and entertainment from a stellar lineup of local artists: Gavin Gonzalez-Myers, Mina Estrada, Caitlin Fox, Tessa Seybert, and Lille Nightengale.
Follow @hungry.haveasnack and @local.abundance for artist highlights, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and ways to connect with their work.
Moving to Remember
AUGUST 23 | 2-4PM
How do we experience meditation in a moving body? How does the body pray? This workshop invites participants to explore the intersection of movement and the sacred—whether through the lens of prayer, meditation, or personal reverence. Together, we will experiment with translating internal states of devotion, gratitude, and contemplation into physical expression, using guided improvisation, gesture, and time.
No prior dance experience is necessary — just a willingness to listen inward and move from there.
Participants will be supported in cultivating an embodied practice that honors individual and collective experiences of the sacred, offering space for quiet discovery, shared presence, and creative play.
This workshop is presented by Smack Dab Dance Lab in partnership with Harvester Arts and will be co-facilitated by Mina Estrada and Lille Ana Nightingale.
The workshop fee is $20. If you register by August 8, use promo code NOW15 to pay $15. Register at https://www.zeffy.com/ticketing/moving-to-remember.
