Grief is the Price of Love
May 12-November 22, 2026
Amythest Hultman Warrington was born in Iowa but grew up in a mobile military family across the U.S. and Europe. She received her B.F.A. from the University of Northern Iowa and her M.F.A. from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. Amythest runs the ceramics program at the Hearst Center for the Arts in Cedar Falls and will begin teaching ceramics at the University of Northern Iowa in August 2026.
“My work explores the beauty and pain of loss through art. I physically bear down into the clay, then remove the object, leaving a void to physically represent the emotional weight an experience leaves on us, making the invisible visible. I utilize clay’s unique physical properties of malleability, recyclability, and permanence to explore the dichotomy between strength and frailty as an allegory to the human condition.”

Vodou Reboot:
Consecrating the Contemporary
December 2, 2026-March 21, 2027
The WCA is proud to present an exhibition that seeks to foreground Vodou as a living spiritual, artistic, and communal practice by bringing contemporary artworks back into relation with sacred space, ritual, and devotional life. Through installations, ceremonial activations, guided tours, and public dialogues, the exhibition offers visitors an opportunity to encounter Vodou on its own terms and through the perspectives of those who are grounded in its traditions. Curated by Petrouchka L.L. Moise from Grinnell College and the Haitian Arts Digital Crossroads project, independent curator Yvena Despagne, and WCA Executive Director Chawne Paige.
