Mid-Columbia Watercolor Society & Empty Bowls

This March, the Gallery at the Park presents a vibrant new exhibition from the Mid-Columbia Watercolor Society, Refractions and Reflections, alongside Empty Bowls, an art fundraiser to combat hunger in our community.

The Mid-Columbia Watercolor Society was established in 2017 to provide a forum for learning, sharing, and practicing the art of watercolor.

Watercolor is a challenging medium that requires precision and timing. When light passes through delicate layers of pigment, it reflects on the white paper and returns a brilliance only watercolor can achieve.

The Society averages more than 30 members and showcases multiple exhibitions every year, partnering with regional libraries, restaurants, and wineries.

Alongside the Mid-Columbia Watercolor Society’s Refractions and Reflections, the Gallery at the Park is featuring handmade bowls as part of the Empty Bowls fundraiser.

Ceramic, glass, and wooden bowls donated by our Gallery artists are on sale with all proceeds going directly to the Tri-Cities Food Bank. These handmade bowls are a reminder that many in our community face empty bowls every day.

Exhibition Dates: March 3 to 27, 2026
Reception Date: Sunday, March 8, 2026, from 1 to 3pm
