Marketview Arts Exhibitions

July 17–October 3, 2025 | Gallery Hall
Opening Reception: Thursday, July 17, 5–7 p.m.

"A Light in the Dark" is a solo exhibition by Maggie Moran, a Brooklyn-based artist who spends her days working in the corporate artworld and her nights in the studio making the paintings that she will be bringing to York. Maggie left York, PA, for New York more than a decade ago, but community members may remember her as Creative York's former Gallery Director (though it was called York Arts back then). She was also one of the core crew members that developed Wayne White's FOE installation at Marketview Arts in 2014. We are excited to bring her back to York to exhibit her own work in that same space. Please join us for the opening on Thursday, July 17, to give Maggie a warm York homecoming, celebrate her success in the NYC artworld, and see the work she has been making.

Curators’ Statement

Counterbalance is rooted in our belief that a stronger, more collaborative
relationship between the art communities of York and Lancaster counties is both
meaningful and worth pursuing. Community building can be a tricky endeavor. It
requires a range of skills that are often in short supply, and—perhaps even more
importantly—it requires convincing people that investing their time and resources
in that community will be worthwhile.

With Counterbalance, our goal is to reach across the bridge and create
opportunities for new relationships among artists, art institutions, and art patrons.
We aim to do this by elevating awareness of regional artists and organizations,
sharing opportunities and resources, and embracing the natural cross-
collaboration already emerging between our two vibrant communities.

The artists featured in Counterbalance have been selected for the quality of their
craftsmanship, the strength of their studio practices, and their ability to produce
work that transcends a purely local aesthetic. Our focus is on contemporary,
forward-thinking, risk-taking bodies of work grounded in strong craft. We believe
these artists hold meaningful standing in their respective communities and
deserve wider recognition across the region. This dual-location exhibition is
designed to shine a bright light on professional studio artists who are both
grinding and thriving in York and Lancaster counties, while fostering the genuine
growth of our two arts communities into a collaborative, expanding, and dynamic
ecosystem.

Please Joins us,
Matthew Apol

Counterbalance has been made possible in part through the gererous contributions of The Powder Mill Foundation, The Cultural Allience of York County, The Demuth Foundation, and York College of Pennsylvania.
