Artists of the Applegate, a group exhibition featuring 21 artists from throughout Southern Oregon’s Applegate Valley, opens Friday, October 16, at Langford Art Gallery in Phoenix. Presented in collaboration with A Greater Applegate, the exhibition runs October 16 through November 21, 2026, with an opening reception, artist panel, and artist talk planned throughout the exhibition. Group exhibition advances a growing effort to increase the visibility of Applegate artists and strengthen the region’s creative community
The exhibition is part of a broader effort by Applegate Artists to increase the visibility of artists living and working throughout the valley, strengthen their presence within the regional arts community, and create new opportunities for artists to exhibit and sell their work. Ultimately, the group hopes to help establish a stronger and more permanent place for sharing art within the Applegate Valley itself.
Applegate Artists is a working group operating under A Greater Applegate (AGA), a nonprofit community-building organization serving the Applegate Valley. The artists have joined together in response to the limited availability of gallery space within the valley, developing creative partnerships with galleries, museums, businesses, wineries, events, and arts organizations throughout the region.
