Friday in the Park - July 2025

Since 1851, Wisconsin has embraced the word "Forward" as its state motto, a simple yet powerful declaration of progress and positivity. At Lily Pad | West, we have embodied this spirit for the past eight years, consistently advancing our vision of showcasing world-class art through a dynamic mix of local, national, and international artists. As the gallery expands its horizons, we are proud to remain deeply rooted in supporting the vibrant community of contemporary Wisconsin artists. We are thrilled to present "Forward," our fourth annual group exhibition featuring an impressive lineup of Wisconsin-based artists: Marc Anderson, Steve Gerhartz, Robert M. Girsh, Michael Guinane, Shelby Keefe, Bruce Niemi, Antwan Ramar, John Waite, and Diane Washa. This year, we are especially excited to welcome Mutópe Johnson, Jolanta Kinga Rose, Michael Sutton, and Alan Eickberg.
