April 27th Artist Talk with Emily Nomer & Nansi Lent

April 27th 2024

3pm – 5pm

Join artists Nansi Lent and Emily Nomer for an afternoon of intimate discussion about their solo exhibits, ENIGMATIC DEVOTIONS and NIGHT VISION.

Attendees will enjoy time in the gallery as a group as each artist discusses their work and their inspirations, the genesis of the works in the exhibit,and their artistic process. A Q&A session with each artist will follow.
If you haven’t seen the exhibit yet, we suggest arriving early to have some time to view the works before the gallery talks begin at 3PM.

People always ask “How long does it take to make one of your pieces?” I don’t think I can answer that, but I will tell you how I go about it. I hope you will come and bring your questions! – Emily Nomer

I am a ruminator with constant on-going internal dialog. I feel very connected to global humanity in that fact. Beginning mediators sometimes see this for the first time. My artwork is an outgrowth of that reality and my intention is to capture that energy, express it and turn it into prayer. I look forward to exploring this topic and sharing my process at my upcoming Artist Talk. – Nansi Lent

Gallery hours are Friday – Sunday, noon to 5 PM.

This exhibit runs through Sunday, April 28.

The gallery talk and gallery visits are free and open to the general public.
Goodwill donations are always welcome.
