Impressions and Exposures: The Hand Magazine Exhibit

November 1 - December 31, 2025

Sharon & Lance Beshore Gallery

Founded in 2013, The Hand Magazine is an international print and photography magazine based in Prairie Village, KS. The mission of The Hand is to highlight the many inventive and creative ways artists incorporate print and photo-based media into their work. As part of that mission, The Hand presents physical exhibitions in order to encourage the enjoyment of art in person. Impressions and Exposures: The Hand Magazine Exhibit invites the audience to contemplate the craft of artmaking and how individual artists express themselves amid the persistence of AI, digital creation, and mass-media.
