A new exhibit opens Sunday at the Noyes cultural Arts Center in Evanston. Titled “Transformations,” the display features works by Art Encounter’s critique members.

Curated by Joanna Pinsky, the exhibit features work by artists Ken Avick, Betty Butler, Martin Davidson, Tas Ganitopoulos, Cynthia Goldring, Itala, Ellie Routtenberg, and Jeanne Siegel.

An opening reception will be held from 3 to 5 p.m. Sunday in the upstairs gallery at the center, 927 Noyes St. The work will be on display through May 6.

Running concurrently with the Transformations exhibition in the downstairs gallery at Noyes is the exhibit “The Next Generation,” which features multimedia work by four recent master of fine arts graduates of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago — Megan Diddie, Rebecca George, Saiko Kase, and Benjamin Stagl.

That exhibit was curated by Chie Curley and Barbara Goldsmith.

Regular gallery hours for both exhibits are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. Admission is free.
