Explore our newly formed non-profit
After more than twenty years of searching, The Chambers Project has acquired Dion Wright’s legendary “Taxonomic Mandala,” a piece that witnessed one of the most iconic chapters of psychedelic history.
Throughout the 1960s and ‘70s, this original hung in the meditation room of the Brotherhood of Eternal Love, the Laguna Beach collective whose influence shaped the psychedelic movement. Known as the “Hippie Mafia,” this group became known for allocating millions of “Orange Sunshine” hits around the world.
After restoration, it will hang in our main gallery in Grass Valley, continuing its journey as both a remarkable work of art and a tangible artifact from one of the most influential eras in psychedelic history.
Now it’s time to get to work restoring this legendary piece of art history to its eternal glory 👊👊👊
@questglass presents: “For the Love of Glass,” an exhibition celebrating the living tradition of American borosilicate glass art.
Curated by Johnny Quest, a contemporary lampworker who began his journey at age 16 in Dallas, Texas, “For the Love of Glass” presents a substantial body of Quest’s solo work alongside a curated selection of collaborations with artists who have shaped his practice.
These collaborations, with artists like @alexubatuba @bubbasface @credoglass @carlsonjones @erin.bourguignon @fumegazi @fritglass @haapsglass @_powerpat @renz_craft @sleek___ @stormin___norman are more than technical partnerships. These works reflect years of friendship, inspiration, shared knowledge, and mutual respect among makers dedicated to advancing the art of borosilicate glass.
Join us on Saturday August 8th, 2026, at The Chambers Project gallery in Grass Valley, CA to celebrate this wild work of this wonderful art form in style.

@ajmasthay on the art of imperfection ✨
Known for his unique print style of creating some of the most iconic gig posters in the world, Masthay intentionally pushes the screenprinting process into unpredictable territory, layering dozens of colors and techniques in ways that make fatal mistakes a real possibility. Every print carries subtle variations and tactile evidence of the artist’s winding journey.
In an era where mediocre, flawless images can be generated endlessly, he believes inconsistency has become an invaluable currency of authenticity.
Work in progress by the one and only @damonsoule . This one is a monster🏆🏆
WIP of @colinprahl largest piece to date 🏙️✨
Join us on June 19th at @thecenterforthearts in downtown Grass Valley for the opening of “Ripple Effect: Art + Music + Psychedelia,” an immersive exhibition exploring the enduring influence of the psychedelic movement across art, music, and culture.
Co-curated by Sarah Coleman and Brian Chambers, the exhibition brings together historic and contemporary works that trace the moment when psychedelic experience began reshaping the creative landscape.
At the heart of the exhibition is a selection of works from The Chambers Project, whose artists have helped define and expand the language of contemporary psychedelic art for a new generation.
More than a retrospective, “Ripple Effect” examines how a cultural movement continues to reverberate through the present, influencing the way we create, connect, and imagine.
This is a FREE all-ages event. We hope you’ll join us!

Heady is as heady does 💀🌀🌹Brian + Banjo rippin @banjoglass interpretations of @rickgriffindesigns “Hawaiian Aoxomoxoa” at the closing party for @the_chambers_project “60 Years of the Grateful Dead” retrospective 🔥 Happy Friday y’all!
That’s a wrap, folks! 🥀
Huge thanks to everyone who came out for the closing party of our “60 Years of the Grateful Dead” retrospective and helped us send this wild thing off in style.
What began as an exhibition became something much bigger: a gathering place for the art, music, stories, and community that continue to ripple out from the Grateful Dead’s long strange trip.
We’re beyond grateful to everyone who showed up, shared memories, danced, enjoyed art, played music, and made this experience what it was.
Stay turned on and tuned in! We’ll be announcing our next exhibition soon. The trip continues 🌀
Tomorrow, Saturday 5/23, is your LAST CHANCE to see our “60 Years of the Grateful Dead” retrospective before it’s gone.
Six decades in the making, this landmark exhibition celebrates the culture born from the band’s psychedelic odyssey, spiraling all the way back to their first show on December 4, 1965.
Fully licensed and endorsed by the Grateful Dead, the show is a visual feast of original album art, concert posters, and rare treasures, many of which have never been seen before.
Join us tomorrow from 12–7pm for the closing party as we celebrate the music, the art, and our wild, wonderful community.
Expect a family-friendly afternoon of phenomenal art, live music by @love_mischief, BBQ by @zaltbbq, delicious drinks, games, and face painting by some surprise guests 🧑🎨
We’ll also have epic deals on GD60 merch, blotters, prints, and more.
SEE YOU THERE!!

Dennis Larkins is one of the great architects of psychedelic live performance. Through towering hand-painted sets and immersive visual environments, @startlingart_dennis_larkins helped turn concerts into alternate realities for bands like Led Zeppelin, Santana, The Rolling Stones, and of course, the Grateful Dead.
For the opening of our “60 Years of the Grateful Dead” retrospective back in December, Brian Chambers commissioned this epic three-dimensional piece, entitled “Magic Bu,s” with hopes of it becoming the official poster for the show.
Created using a proprietary mix of materials he’s been working on perfecting for forty years, it depicts countercultural legends parked at the Highway 49 crossing over the iconic Yuba River in Nevada County, where the gallery is located.
A conflict ultimately prevented us from being able to make this piece the official poster for this show, but that doesn’t make it any less iconic.
Dennis Larkins tells the story.

In honor of the 69th anniversary of Bicycle Day, we’re releasing textured foil paper prints of “Bicycle Day,” a collaboration between two of the greatest psychedelic artists of their generations.
The “Bicycle Day” painting began during a live painting session with @mars_1_ & @alexgreycosm in San Francisco on April 19, 2012 during a Bicycle Day event.
Developed through an exchange between the artists’ studios, and commissioned by Brian Chambers, the work evolved into a fully realized collaboration, uniting Grey’s psycho-spiritual anatomical vision with Mars-1’s multi-patterned abstract dimensionality.
