Studio Showdown
Studio Showdown is a live painting competition featuring local St. Louis artists.
Watch painters create original pieces in real time after a surprise prompt is revealed. The crowd brings the energy, you cheer them on, and then you vote for your favorite.
This is not a typical gallery night. It’s interactive, fast-paced, and built to uplift local artists by putting their work in front of a packed room.
Silent auction
At the end of the night, you’ll have the chance to bid on the artwork created live during the showdown. Artists receive 80% of the final sale price, and 20% supports event production and helps us keep bringing nights like this to St. Louis.

Opening Night: The Art of BecominG
Our second exhibition explores the theme of growth, transformation, and exploration. The art on display embodies evolution in all forms, be it conceptual, emotional, or material. Through this theme, we aim to explore how transformation can be captured and portrayed through art. How it evolves, how it feels, and how it shapes both the artist and viewer.
