FLORALS IN THE FAMILY: 2 PERSPECTIVES
March 16 – May 1, 2024
Featuring Laura Kellam and Margy Figelson
Artist Reception: April 6 | 7:00pm
Local Jewish artists, mother and daughter Margy Feigelson and Laura Kellam, draw inspiration from nature while expressing themselves with their unique styles and techniques. Along with a desire to capture the beauty of nature, these artists also have in common the love of the painting process. It serves as a therapeutic and expressive necessity for both. This special bond is one that mother and daughter have shared for many years, and they are thrilled to be exhibiting their artwork together.

THE ARCHITECTURE OF ISRAEL
May 2- June 14, 2024
Featuring Chaya Greenwald
My main inspiration comes from beautiful photos of Israel, the Old City streets of Yerushalayim and anything that gives me an “Oh my gosh I need to make that into a painting” type of photo. I am a child of a Holocaust survivor. Seeing images of the old-time shtetl and days of simple Jewish life really bring out strong feelings and I want to get those feelings on a canvas to share with others. More at fineartbychaya.com.
