Through the Spotlight Exhibition Series, Peninsula School of Art intends to provide career development and experience for visual artists and to share high-quality, concept-driven exhibitions with the Door County community. Instead of the thematic group exhibitions normally presented in the Guenzel Gallery, the Spotlight Series features concurrent solo exhibitions by two or three artists, each showing a complete body of work. The spring of 2026 marks the next installment in this series.

PenArt presents a career-spanning retrospective of artist, educator, and community champion Nancy Sargent. The exhibition follows a thematic journey from her earliest paintings studying at Cardinal Stritch University to works made during her careers in education and advertising to pieces made in her Fish Creek studio as recently as this year.

Of Place is the culmination of the inaugural Peninsula State Park Artist-in-Residence program, co-sponsored by the Peninsula School of Art and Friends of Peninsula State Park. During the residency, Massey Craddock and Tomiko Jones each created several new works of art, exhibited here in context with pieces from their larger bodies of work.

Time and Space: A Survey of Artists-in-Residence brings together work from participants in these first few years of our Artists-in-Residence program. Come see what these artists made during their time at PenArt or what new directions their work has taken since.
