The Gadsden Arts Center & Museum invites the community to its Meet the Artists reception, held Saturday, January 24, 2026, from 5:00-7:30pm in Quincy, Florida. This evening event gives visitors the rare chance to talk directly with the artists behind the Collect Select exhibition currently on view.

Meet the Artists Reception: An Evening With the Collect Select Artists

This artist reception Quincy FL hosts each January is more than a typical gallery opening — it’s an opportunity to ask questions about technique, inspiration, and process directly from the people who made the work. The Collect Select reception fills the museum’s galleries with conversation, light refreshments, and the chance to view, and purchase, original pieces before they’re gone.

Guests of all backgrounds are welcome, whether you’re a longtime collector or simply curious about how a piece came together. Many attendees say hearing an artist describe their own work changes the way they see it entirely, making this Gadsden Arts Center reception a memorable addition to any visit.

Date, Time, and How to Get There

The reception runs from 5:00 to 7:30pm at the museum, 13 N Madison Street, Quincy, FL 32351, in the heart of the historic downtown district, with parking and other shops nearby. Because the exhibition runs for a limited window in late January, this evening is one of the best chances to see the full collection while the people who created it are present.
