Current Exhibition
Ouroboros:
Senior Exhibition
Opening Soon
April 13 - June 14, 2026
Ouroboros. Continuity, legacy, infinity. An exhibition originally co-created by two seniors in the class of 2024 to celebrate the resilience of graduating students whose academic career was shaped by the 2020 lockdown and now has been passed down to the next senior class as a legacy show of eternal procession.
This 3rd Annual Ouroboros Senior Exhibition resumes the story of uncertainty, renewal, and connection.

About the Evergreen Gallery
Curating Exhibitions and Events
Providing an opportunity
Exhibitions and Gallery events are free and open to the public. As managers of the Evergreen Gallery, the House of Welcome aims to provide opportunities for artists to bring education, cultural competency, and their unique perspectives on the human experience to the Olympia campus. Depending on the exhibition, viewers may see video screenings, live performances, interactive installations, or two-dimensional and three-dimensional artworks and installations.
The Gallery presents art by professional artists — local, national, and international — with a show by Senior Thesis students at the end of each academic year. The Senior Thesis show offers students the opportunity to submit their portfolio to a rigorous review process, and, if their work is selected, to become deeply involved in creating a professional-level exhibition.
History of the Evergreen Gallery
Our mission
The Gallery has existed since the beginning of the college and has been in the current location since 2009. The space was designed to be flexible enough to show works in any media.
In 2021, management of the Evergreen Gallery was transferred to the House of Welcome Cultural Arts Center. The House of Welcome oversees the Gallery’s temporary exhibitions, with a new show installed at the beginning of Fall, Winter, and Spring Quarters. The intent behind these exhibitions is intrinsically linked to the mission of the House of Welcome: to advance Indigenous arts and cultures through education, cultural exchange, and economic opportunity. The House of Welcome staff has embraced the responsibility of providing Evergreen and surrounding communities a chance to experience art from diverse cultures, philosophies, disciplines, in a range of media.
