Mills Gallery is excited to announce the opening of ‘WINN-WIN: The Emerging Artists Exhibition 2025,’ running from November 21st to December 28th, 2025, at Mills Gallery. The WINN-WIN 2025 was conceived by Juan Pablo Santa Luna, the gallerist’s Executive Director and Curator, and the late philanthropist Michael Winn. The two had met at The Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra, for which Winn was a benefactor and Juan Pablo was their Cultural Ambassador.

In this second annual Exhibition, the event will feature the works of five local emerging artists from all walks of life. All were found by an exhaustive search that provided the best of what Central Florida can achieve. Each artist brings a passion and vision to their art. Mya Osborne talks about school shootings. Jordan Carl Jones talks about mental health, addiction, and how to pursue a calmer life. Sophia Mitchell talks about surviving personal traumas. Alex Rogers shares the experiences of changing their body. Xavier Moss talks about spirituality and how it affects his everyday life. Together, these five visions challenge us to understand young people’s experiences. 

This event provides a dynamic platform for artists to show their wares and learn the business from a special Arts Boot Camp involved in the creation of this exhibition. Artists are given supplies, advice, and personalized consultations about what they will experience. Our goal is that not a single artist loses out on the many opportunities that will be presented to them because of the nature of this event.
