Maria
Woodford, Jake Heck and Rian Carr
  We
are THRILLED to have this trio back at the gallery. Maria
Woodford has a powerful
voice that harkens back to some of the Blues better known
legends- and you should hear her play mandolin! She
is backed up by Jake Heck, who's guitar playing is a wonderful
combination of all that is the best of folk and blues- easy on the ears
and soothing to the soul.
The percussive
style of Rian Carr rounds this
trio out and adds a fullness to the sound that fools you into believing
that there are more musicians present than you see. All tremendously
talented on their own, this trio is a grouping that anyone craving good
local music will not want to miss.Free event/ BYOB |

Jett Ulaner Sarachek
" A Photographic Retrospective-40 Years"
June27th - August 10th
Opening Reception Saturday, June 28- 6 to 9PM
Artist Talk Sunday, August 3 beginning at 2PM
 A graduate
of Moore College of Art, Jett Ulaner Sarachek
has been an
artist/photographer for over 35 years. She has shown
in
numerous solo,
juried, and group exhibitions in New York, Pennsylvania,
New Mexico,
California, Puerto Rico and Washington. As an art psychotherapist, she is acutely aware of the importance of the creative process- how we gather ideas in our unconscious. Drawn to the intrinsic beauty of light, how it creates shadow and accents darkness, her images are indicative of the natural grace and power of water, earth , and the human form. They give the viewer a sense of how the earth represents strength, power and solidity and the sensuality and grace in water. She observes and documents the human form as it relates to these forces and is informed by them. " I am intrigued by the idea of artful distortion, how to make a photograph that expresses feelings, and emotions rather than just capturing an image." To quote George Kneller- " To think creatively we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted." The images in this exhibition led themselves to such an experience. |
