MAIN GALLERY: MAS Attack

The return of the Mutual Appreciation Society event—MAS Attack a one-night-only pop-up exhibition that invites all artists to share work that reflects upon our times and come together as a community.

As the U.S. faces ongoing political and cultural tension, many artists are feeling isolated, uncertain, and overwhelmed. From debates about immigration and censorship to protests, economic struggles, and threats to democratic values—there’s growing pressure on communities and creative spaces.

MAS Attack 2026 is a response: a way to reclaim hope, connection, and strength through art. This one-night exhibition invites Southern California artists to share work that reflects, resists, heals, or sheds light on the times we’re living in.

DUE TO SCHEDULING CONFLICTS THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED FROM DEC. 2025 to SPRING 2026

MAIN GALLERY: Ralph Steadman: and Another Thing

This traveling exhibition spans over 60 years of Ralph Steadman’s influential career, featuring more than 140 original artworks and ephemera, including sketchbooks, handwritten notes, and personal photographs. Steadman is best known for his long collaboration with Hunter S. Thompson, notably illustrating "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas." Their partnership helped define Gonzo journalism, a style of reporting that blends personal experience with political commentary. Coined by journalist Bill Cardoso, Gonzo’s impact is still felt today in online news, editorial pieces, social media, and political punditry.

The exhibition showcases his diverse body of work, from iconic illustrations for Lewis Carroll’s "Alice in Wonderland" and Robert Louis Stevenson’s "Treasure Island" to collections like "The Gonzovation Trilogy," created in collaboration with documentarian and filmmaker Ceri Levy to raise awareness about endangered species. Featured works include nine portraits of U.S. Presidents, over 20 images of famous people, including T.S. Eliot, Karl Marx, Virginia Woolf, and George Orwell, and "Vintage Dr. Gonzo," a life-size bronze sculpture.

This exhibition is organized by the Ralph Steadman Art Collection. Sponsored by United Therapeutics, Flying Dog, and Beta Technologies.

The Studio System Experimental Residency project is a unique attempt to bridge the gap between artistic practice and the public. First held in 2015, Studio System seeks to bring the dynamism of the artist's studio into the museum space, encouraging audiences to not only see works as they are in progress but to interact with the artist to discuss inspirations, sources, thoughts, feelings, content and context, as well as chart the progression of the works over the month long period that the project encompasses.
