“DOG: An Art Show In Celebration of Companionship” Opens Saturday, June 7 at A Sometimes Gallery
A Sometimes Gallery is pleased to announce DOG, a group exhibition celebrating relationships with canine friends. The show is inspired by the release of gallery artist Jessica Poundstone’s book, “Museum of Dogs: A Romp Through Art History for Dog People” (Chronicle Books, 2025). The show features artwork by more than 20 Portland-area artists, including paintings, prints, soft sculpture, and more. The show begins with an opening party on Saturday, June 7, from 5-8 p.m. Special events – including pet portraiture, paw print tiles, and an adoption event – will be happening throughout the month.
