Resident Artist Logan Reynolds

Left: Work from Shifting Perspective. Center: Logan Reynolds in his studio at Belger Crane Yard Gallery. Right: Work from More Than Meets the Eye.

Logan Reynolds is one of six resident artists whose work is on view in Shifting Perspective: The Belger Arts’ Twelfth Annual Resident Exhibition. His work is also included in More Than Meets the Eye. Both exhibitions are on view through September 6, 2025 at the Belger Crane Yard Gallery (2011 Tracy Ave., KCMO).

Reynolds describes his work as “observational and semi-autobiographical yet [drawing] from popular culture and media streams in search of a more universal pulse.” He’s interested in “the expression of sociocultural status and methods of indoctrination driven from sources that are presumed honest and safe.”

Meet him and learn more about his work on First Friday, August 1 at the Belger Crane Yard Gallery. He will give remarks at 6:30 PM.

Call for Artists

Put a Lid on It: Lidded Vessel Invitational

Deadline to Apply: Friday, July 25, 2025

Exhibition Dates: October 3 - December 31, 2025

Belger Arts invites artists to Put a Lid on It and explore the lidded vessel form.

From butter dishes and Dutch ovens to a trinket jar, adding a lid creates separation between what is inside and what is outside. Sometimes this separation is functional (keeping a casserole warm, while en route to a potluck), or it’s emotional (a safe place to keep a precious treasure).

The notion of what we choose to hold inside can be literal or symbolic, practical or emotional. Put a Lid on It invites artists to draw upon these ideas when creating lidded vessels and covered dishes in their unique styles.

The deadline to apply is July 25 (11:59 PM CST). Exhibition dates are October 3 through December 31, 2025.
