Organized by Williamson Brasfield and Riitta Ikonen, the Little Bay Invitational returns for its second edition on Saturday and Sunday, June 13-14, 2026.
Set in and around Little Bay, the exhibition brings together site-responsive installations, performances, and artist-led activations experienced primarily by water through guided canoe tours. The participating artists engage directly with the bay itself - its tides, weather systems, bird life, and mycological ecologies - treating the landscape not as backdrop but as collaborator and material.
New for 2026, the Invitational expands to two days and includes performances throughout the weekend alongside food and drink offerings onsite.
