SUMMARY:Elizabeth Keithline: Puzzle
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Keithline: Puzzle\nAugust 22 – September 27\, 2026 \n\nArtist Elizabeth Keithline presents Puzzle\, a solo exhibition of assemblage artworks using found paint and materials. \nPuzzle is a follow-up to Breaking Broken\, Keithline’s previous solo show\, which explored human tendencies toward self-destruction and fragmentation. Puzzle pivots to examine how people create system of order out of chaos\, how they solve problems and navigate life’s challenges.  \nThe show continues Keithline’s longstanding exploration of human self-extension through systems such as architecture\, technology\, cars\, and the modern built environment—especially as these systems relate to the natural world. \nIn addition to her solo show\, Keithline will jury a companion exhibition in WRCA’s main galleries titled Keep It Together\, featuring assemblage-based artwork that conveys a material and conceptual sense of solving and/or coping. \n  \nAbout the artist:\nElizabeth Keithline has been a weaver since the age of 14. In 1996\, she pioneered a unique sculpture technique: weaving heavy-gauge wire around large objects and then burning them out. Her artistic practice now includes painting\, public art\, and installation work. Keithline is fascinated by abstraction—how far ideas can stretch\, how many multiples of a single thought can be expressed\, and how viewers engage with abstraction as they perceive an idea and then carry it away with them. \nPuzzle marks Keithline’s 23rd solo exhibition and Keep It Together will be her 23rd juried or curated group show. She has exhibited widely across the United States\, with solo shows for the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation\, ChaShaMa NYC\, Jane Street Art Center\,  \n  \nOPENING RECEPTION\nSaturday\, August 22\, 5 – 7 pm \nPlease join us to meet the artist and view the works; light refreshments will be served. \n  \nThe WRCA galleries and art reception are always free and open to the public. \nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pm \n  \nImage: Elizabeth Keithline\, Nowhere To Land\, mixed media\, 4 x 3 ft.\, 2026

SUMMARY:Keep It Together\, A Regional Exhibition Juried by Elizabeth Keithline
DESCRIPTION:Keep It Together\nA Regional Exhibition Juried by Elizabeth Keithline\nAugust 22 – September 27\, 2026 \n  \nIn addition to solo show Puzzle\, this companion exhibit juried by Elizabeth Keithline features assemblage-based artwork that conveys a material and conceptual sense of solving and/or coping. \n  \nJuror Statement \nAssemblage is art that is made by assembling disparate elements—often everyday objects—scavenged by the artist or bought specially. Tate Museum \nIn a way\, one could say that we start our first puzzle when egg and sperm find each other and we end it when we die and our bodies fit back into the earth. In between\, it seems we’re pretty much continually trying to solve issues both big and small:  \nWe’re out of milk again. Who will go to the store?  \nMy car died. Who can take me to the airport? \nIt’s hot out. How can we cool down the planet?  \nOur country is at war. How can we find peace? \nMany pieces in this show express how artists are coping\, as well as solving\, these issues. Melissa Stern’s PINK LEG shows assembly and fit through absence. The person she creates is barely there\, yet she is literally still kicking. Lucy Handley’s Prosperity puzzles together a shrine to wealth and comfort\, while giving off a beautiful Miss-Havisham-dustiness.  \nThrough small acts of repetition\, Jeannine Bardo’s Dawn No. 45 seems to express a wish to stitch the days together into an orderly and cohesive whole. Similarly\, Jennifer McGregor’s Thetford Interlude gathers and reuses wool as a sort of clock or chronicle of life. Melanie Delgado’s excellently titled Another Load Of Laundry evokes a calendar of another type\, that of messy\, ceaseless labor. Linda Stillman’s piece Maples On The Move continues her long history as an artist who pieces together an ever-changing natural world.   \nWith this show\, I hope to express an appreciation for how human beings continue to think their way forward despite challenges. \n \nExhibiting artists: Julia Barbour\, Jeannine Bardo\, Jenne Currie\, Melanie Delgado\, Tasha Depp\, Karen E. Gersch\, Lucy Handley\, Jen Hicks\, Chong Kang\, Jeff & Wilson Keithline\, Tracy Leavitt\, Jignasha Leonardo\, Jennifer McGregor\, Eva Melas\, Ann Morris\, Jane Nelson\, Suzanne Parker\, Eileen Power\, Amanda Russo Rubman\, Anthony Scarzafava\, Melissa Stern\, Linda Stillman\, Kimberly Truitt\, Christina Varga\, Ward Yoshimoto\, Mimi Young\, Leslie Zelamsky. \n – Elizabeth Keithline \n  \nAbout the Juror: Artist and arts administrator Elizabeth Keithline’s work focuses on human self-extension and human systems of all kinds – architecture\, technology\, cars\, the modern built environment – particularly as those systems tie to the natural world. \nShe has shown widely in the United States including solo shows at ChaShaMa NYC\, Governors Island NY\, the Peabody Essex Museum\, the Danforth Museum\, the Newport Art Museum\, Jane Street Art Center\, the Waiting Room in New Orleans\, Blue Star Contemporary in San Antonio\, ArtPrize Grand Rapids\, Real Art Ways in Hartford\, and UMass Amherst. Her work has been well reviewed in the New York Times\, Sculpture Magazine\, Hyperallergic\, the Boston Globe\, Fiberarts\, and others. \n  \nOPENING RECEPTION\nSaturday\, August 22\, 5 – 7 pm \nPlease join us to meet the artists and view the works; light refreshments will be served. \n  \nArt receptions and the galleries at WRCA are always free and open to the public. \nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pm

SUMMARY:Watercolor with Stephanie Snyder | Sept. 2026
DESCRIPTION:Sunday mornings\, 10 am – 12 pm \nSeptember 6\, 13\, 20\, 27 \n$120\, $100 Members ($90 skip Intro. Day) \n\nThe first day of the month’s session – 09/6/26 – is for anyone who is just starting out or would like additional guidance. Attendance is recommended if you are a first-time student of this class. \nThis watercolor class will be focused on producing finished work. \nMany learn best when following along painting with an artist\, so that is the approach this class will follow. We will produce a finished painting each week with a different subject\, and returning students are welcomed.  The approach will be to paint fast and loose\, to cover the basics of watercolor by doing them\, and hopefully\, to have some fun. \n  \nStephanie Snyder began painting in watercolor in 2022 at the Wallkill River Center for the Arts under the instruction of Alan Lewis. She enjoys painting landscapes in an impressionistic style\, and paints as often as her teaching career allows. She lists her influences as Alan Lewis\, Susan Djukaric\, JMW Turner\, and Stanley Donwood. \n  \nStudents are to bring their own supplies.  Specific recommendations will be discussed in the first class\, so bring what you already have rather than purchasing anything before that class. \nPaper- cold press paper recommended (100% cotton)\nBrushes – 3 basic brushes: #10 round\, a smaller brush for detail\, a larger quill brush (size 6) or mop brush of about an inch\nPaint – Avoid chalky mediums. Tubes will be easier to work with than pans.\nPalette – A watercolor palette has many wells for your paint and space to mix colors.\nOther – Not necessary for class\, but useful at home – A hairdryer\, painters tape\, tissues\, pencils\, paper towels\, etc. \n\n\nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

SUMMARY:Intro to Oil with William Noonan
DESCRIPTION:Thursday evening \nSeptember 10 \n6 – 8 pm \n$40 without materials\, $60 with all materials supplied \n  \nFor absolute beginners or oil painters who need a refresher and some renewed courage. \nTopics covered will include: materials\, pigments\, brushes\, solvents\, basic color mixing\, paint application\, how to start a painting. All the basic principles of oil painting with hands on practice. \nMaterials can be supplied * if you purchase the ‘+ materials’ and includes everything you need for the class including canvas; everyone else is expected to have all the materials on the materials list. \n*NOTE: supplied materials will be water mixable oils\, not the traditional solvent based process. \n  \nMaterials List:\nOil Painting Set up for beginners. Student grade paints are good for getting started\, you don’t need expensive artist grade paints. \nYELLOWS:\n1 Cadmium or Hansa Yellow Light\n1 Cadmium or Hansa yellow medium \nREDS & ORANGE:\n1 alizarin crimson or magenta or quinacridone magenta (purplish red)\n1 cadmium red medium (true red)\n1 Cadmium Orange \nBLUES:\n1 Ultramarine Blue\n1 Cerulean or Viridian \nEARTH TONES:\n1 Burnt or Raw Umber\n1 Yellow Ochre \nWHITE:\n1 Titanium White \nBRUSHES… China bristle filberts are the best. You will need to start out with a good range. Start with at least one filbert of each of these sizes #2\,3\,4\,5. Avoid synthetic bristles- they don’t stand up to the rigors of oil painting.\nSOLVENT… Gamsol or some other brand odorless mineral spirit. This is for traditional oils not water mixable oils.\nPALETTE… disposable paper palettes are fine to start out with.\nPALETTE KNIFE… the kind that has a bend in the handle and is shaped like a pointy trowel.\nCANVAS…For beginners it’s best to have a few canvas boards to start out with around 11×14. \nPAPER TOWELS ….. don’t forget these! They are invaluable.\n\n\n\n\nAbout the instructor\, William Noonan\n  \nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

SUMMARY:Mosaics with Jodi Doster
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, September 20th \n11 am – 2 pm \n$75\, $65 Members (includes materials) \n  \nJoin Jodi Doster for this special workshop to create bead and tile mosaics; beginner to advanced level students welcome. Mosaic is an art form that has been around since Mesopotamia in the 3rd Millennium BC. The mosaic is an assemblage of pieces (beads or tiles for this class) to create a piece of art. Mosaics come in many forms from murals\, to installations\, or a wall hanging. \nIn this class students will use a variety of specialty and Mardi Gras beads and/or tiles to create their own piece of mosaic art. Students will create a drawing or design\, choose colors that coordinate with the colors of beads and tiles available\, paint a piece of foam board or cut out plywood for tile mosaics\, then use adhesive to glue down their beads and weld bond for tiles. \nFoam boards and cut outs will be painted using the process of mixing colors before beads are attached. Students can work from a mix of photographs\, magazines\, or even floral arrangements to come up with a drawing or design that will be interpreted with beads and tiles. Students will draw\, paint\, and mosaic to create their own one of a kind work of art. \nAll materials will be provided! \n  \nJodi Doster has been teaching science and art 18 years at Bristol Bay Borough Middle/High School in Nanek\, Alaska.  She is also an Adjunct Professor for the University of Alaska Fairbanks where she teaches biology and art. \nPlease note\, Jodi will be bringing her service dog Monet to class. \n  \nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY
