Artist Edward Steffanni explores the connections between the queer body, spirituality, and nature through ceramics, printmaking, and performance. God-Shaped Hole draws parallels between the obscuring of sexual orientation and hunting in nature as the artist considers concealability and the surveillance of the queer experience. Steffanni earned his B.A. at Mount Vernon Nazarene University and his M.F.A. in printmaking at the Rhode Island School of Design.

In conjunction with Edward Steffanni: God-Shaped Hole, “Untitled” (L.A.), 1991 by Felix Gonzales-Torres will be on loan from the Art Bridges Foundation and the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, AK.

As Europe plunged into World War II, zoo animals were among the first casualties. From Warsaw and London to Berlin, Rome, and Tokyo, zookeepers faced bombardment, food shortages, occupation, and wrenching ethical questions about which species should live or die—and what captivity meant in a world shaped by mass imprisonment, displacement, and genocide. Drawing on vivid case studies and archival material, Kinder shows how wartime zoos mirrored human vulnerability and resilience, and how they became spaces where civilians thought about survival, sacrifice, and responsibility across species lines.

About the Artist:
Jeff Allen may (or may not) want to admit it, but he’s getting old. At 69, Jeff is staring down his 70th year and decided it might be time to think about slowing down. The result? My First Final Farewell Tour kicks off March 1, 2026. Yes, you read that right—“First” and “Final” in the same sentence—because Jeff’s not totally sure he’s done. (After all, Cher had 20 farewell tours, and Elton John is still out there.)
What he is sure of: he’s bringing a mix of fan favorites and fresh new material to the stage. From the classic Happy Wife, Happy Life routine you’ve been quoting for years, to fresh takes on marriage, family, and everyday life, Jeff is pulling it all together for a night that’s hilarious, unforgettable, and uplifting.

About the Artist:
A popular comedian turned actor who started his career on-stage as a dare, funnyman Eddie Griffin has built an ever-growing fan base since jumping onto the comedy scene in 1990.
Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Eddie was voted class clown three years in a row in high school. His first love was always dance and by the young age of 16, he opened his own dance studio and was choreographing the Kansas City Chiefs half-time shows. But all of that would soon change when one night his cousin dared him to go on stage at the local comedy club Sanford and Sons where he was told to do 3 minutes. He performed off-the-cuff for 45 minutes successfully. It was then that Griffin purchased a one-way ticket to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of becoming a stand up.
He played The Pastor opposite Dave Chappelle, Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper in 2018’s Academy Award Winning feature film A Star is Born.
His Showtime Comedy Special Eddie Griffin: Undeniable debuted on Showtime in February 2018 to rave reviews.
Currently, Eddie can be found performing his Las Vegas Residency, The Eddie Griffin Experience, Monday through Wednesday night, 8PM at the Sayers Club in the Sahara Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. His most recent comedy special Undeniable premiered on Showtime in 2017 to rave reviews.
Eddie is on The Comedy Get Down tour with fellow standup performers Cedric the Entertainer, Charlie Murphy, George Lopez, and D.L. Hughley with dates locked and tickets currently on sale at Ticketmaster.
In 2018 Eddie starred in The Comedy Get Down Television Series airing on BET Thursdays 11:30 / 10:30 CT.
Comedy Central honored Eddie as one of the Top 100 Greatest Stand-Up Comedians of all time. He has conquered not only the stage, but the silver screen as well, appearing in over 50 films and numerous television shows. Griffin is a gifted actor, dancer, choreographer and singer in domestic and foreign territories around the world.
Mr. Griffin is an accomplished philanthropist who has contributed significant resources to the community and the arts and entertainment industry.
