Community Gallery Collaborations
Community Collaborations
At Creative York, we believe that art extends beyond our gallery walls and belongs throughout the community. Through partnerships with local organizations and venues, we host rotating exhibitions in spaces such as Out Door Country Club and West York Borough Gallery. These community galleries allow more artists to showcase their work and make it easier for residents to experience art in accessible, welcoming environments. By expanding our reach through these collaborations, Creative York strengthens its commitment to supporting artists, engaging new audiences, and fostering a vibrant creative culture across the region.
Jeannine Dabb @ Out Door Country Club
November 26, 2025
Jeannine Dabb is an observer by nature, shaped early on by her career as an esthetician, where she learned to see beneath the surface of people. That awareness fuels her artistic practice. She works in thick, layered materials such as paint, papers, found objects, markers, and glitter to reflect the complexity, vulnerability, and hidden stories within her subjects.
Her process is rhythmic and intuitive, often involving tearing down and rebuilding as she searches for what lies beneath. Jeannine’s colors shift from dark to vibrant, guided by mood, while her dynamic lines give movement and presence to people and places that are often overlooked or misunderstood.
Drawing from live observation as well as her own photographs and video stills, her work explores dualities: beauty and pain, stillness and motion, what is seen and what is concealed. In this post-pandemic era, her paintings continue to ask what it means to navigate the world as an MFA student working among writers, dancers, choreographers, and visual artists, each bringing their own layers to uncover.
REMEMBERANCE @ West York Borough Gallery
January 22, 2026-April 6, 2026
The West York Borough Office is creating a memorial to honor fallen police officer, Andrew Duarte.
This community art gallery will highlight creative expression from first responders and local artists. Some works should relate to honoring those lost and the emotions surrounding loss or, for some, how art has been instrumental for them as they navigate a complex profession, critical relationships, and process traumatic experiences they have endured head-on.
