Linda Bernard and Roslyn Logsdon have exhibited together for many years. They take raw materials, such as clay or yarn, and transform them into ceramic vessels and hooked wall hangings. In this exhibit, they focus on life – trees, landscapes, and textures of the earth.

Public Reception: Friday, June 5, 2020, 7-9 pm - CANCELLED

Melissa Burley combines reclaimed items that may include glass, test tubes, furniture parts, clock, bicycle components, and resin and illuminates them with LED lighting. The ultimate goal is to express one’s existence on this earth and to elevate these materials of the past to a level that suggests there is beauty in life after death.

Barry Goldstein

July 5–August 2, 2020
Reception: Sunday, July 12, 2020, 2-4 pm

Life, humanity, and the human condition are phrases that resonate with sculptor, Barry Goldstein. Goldstein digs deeply to uncover what matters in life. In his search, he uses the artistic process as a path of exploration and inquiry into life and relationship. His work responds to the thoughts and feelings erupting from the relationship to narrative and circumstance. He knocks on the door of relationship in the hope of finding heart versus emptiness within. Goldstein’s art is a voice wondering what of life and our world is genuine and of substance and what is as empty as cotton candy.
