The July Art Hop exhibit at the Center for New Media is "No Life Like This Again" by Alisha Richardson. The show opens on July 12 at 5:30 p.m.

The exhibit is a mixed media traditional art series celebrating the depth and temporary nature of the human experience. Each piece is inspired by the artist's own life, showcasing the beauty of nature and music intertwined with the complexities of our emotions.

The series explores a variety of mediums, including ink as the primary medium, used alongside colored pencil, gouache, and metallic foils. Also on display will be the artist's sketchbook and various work-in-progress sketches of the final pieces to highlight the behind the scenes process of creating art.

Support provided by the Kalamazoo Artistic Development Initiative, a program of the Arts Council of Greater Kalamazoo.

Center for New Media Arcus Gallery, 100 E. Michigan Avenue in downtown Kalamazoo hosts art exhibits from 5:30 to 8 p.m. during Kalamazoo City's Art Hops. Gallery hours are Tues. - Fri., noon to 2 p.m.
