Searching for Serenity

December 6 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

Included with admission or membership

Searching for Serenity explores how communities can harness the healing power of art and nature. A response to 2025 wildfire disasters in Los Angeles County, this exhibition bridges creativity with personal storytelling.

Participating professional and community artists share how a deep connection to nature can serve as a tool for individual transformation, renewal, and collective recovery.

Searching for SerenityĀ and its programs are generously funded, in part, byĀ Perenchio FoundationĀ and an endowment from Heather Sturt Haaga and Paul G. Haaga, Jr.

The exhibition is open at the Sturt Haaga Gallery from November 1, 2025–January 4, 2026, 10am–4pm daily.
