Silver Lining: Second Anniversary Video and Exhibition
from Zoom Art Class with Ellen Mandelbaum
For two years, a group of Community Church members led by artist and educator Ellen Mandelbaum have met every Thursday over Zoom. Each week, this collegial group discusses basic principles of visual art, then puts their newfound knowledge into action. The class concludes with an opportunity for each artist to share their work with the group and receive comments and feedback. The exhibition below includes original work from the group members as well as a video recorded during class. Meet the artists and hear how the weekly art class has positively impacted them during COVID isolation. To learn more about a piece of art below or make a purchase, please contact Patti Paris at parislibrary at gmail dot com.
Ellen writes, "If we learned anything during the 2020 pandemic it was that we need people. Community is good. Art is good. We have kept each other company for 2 years drawing and painting. The first class began on zoom Saturday March 14th, 2020 just a few days after the beginning of the lock down. This exhibit begins online March 14, 2022, exactly 2 years later."

SUNSHINE - SHADOWS
Fiber Art by Jody Leight
November/December 2022
In traditional quilting, the phrase "Sunshine and Shadows" refers to arrangements of quilt blocks creating a strong contrast of light and dark colors, often used in wedding quilts to reflect the ups and downs of marriage.
“In my fiber art I often make use of traditional “feminine” skills in a feminist, progressive response to current events and to the climate crisis. But my fiber art is never exclusively political. My style often incorporates visual puns and a whimsical sensibility. It always reflects my openness to inspiration from unexpected finds in the urban environment and the sheer joy of playing with color and fiber.”
—Jody Leight
