In "Pacific Influence," 56 artists from across the nation interpret this vast regional experience through diverse expressions—landscapes that capture the spirit of place, portraits that reveal Western character, abstract works that distill the essence of light and form, and sculptures that give dimension to our connection with this land. These works invite you to discover your own connections—perhaps to a skyline that reminds you of home, a face that echoes someone you've known, a quality of light that speaks to something you've always felt but never quite named.

While this exhibition brings together juried works by NAWA members, the Pacific's influence ripples far beyond geography. Its pull is felt by artists and art lovers everywhere who have experienced this remarkable region and felt something shift within them.

Each visitor will discover something different, something personal, something that resonates in ways only they can fully understand. The Sasse: where love stories develop between art and viewer, one beautiful discovery at a time.
