SUMMARY:Winter Art Show
DESCRIPTION:Warm up these cold days with the library’s Winter Art Show\, which brings together artists of all ages exploring landscape\, wonder\, and the natural world. Rebecca Padula’s At the Edge of Town presents moody oil and cold wax paintings inspired by New England’s rural spaces\, where memory and abstraction meet. Photographer Jeffrey Trubisz invites viewers On the Trail\, sharing images of wild places that reflect both literal paths and life’s journeys. Painter Laurel Waters presents bold landscapes in oil\, full of color and movement. Ceramic works by Barbara Murphy showcase hand-built pottery inspired by nature\, with varied firing techniques that yield richly unexpected results. And rounding out the exhibition is Night Sky Art by Pre-K and first-grade students from Shelburne Community School\, created through an interdisciplinary exploration of the cosmos. Together\, these works celebrate curiosity\, place\, and the many ways we experience and interpret the world around us. Join us for an afternoon of community and creativity!
