List of Events
During this relaxed virtual gathering, slow down, turn inward, and enjoy the present moment with art. Using our powers of observation and interpretation, we'll spend the session diving deep into one work of art. This practice is perfect for anyone who wants to connect more mindfully with art and explore its potential meanings—or for anyone who needs a break from the pandemic insanity! A sliding scale is available for this event.
Pat Pecorella's work expresses deep feelings about her inner world and relationships. Inspired by a life-changing sojourn in Japan and life in the high desert of New Mexico, Pat explores the experience of alternating constriction and expansion. Through her gestural abstractions, Pat gives voice to the freedom that comes from "squeezing through." Join us for a virtual studio tour with Pat for an inside look at her work, her process, and the space where she creates.

Tamarind Institute Master Printer Valpuri Remling speaks on all things print with Zane Bennett Print Curator Kylee Aragon Wallis.
The figurative abstractions of painter and printmaker Stan Berning shift between refracted landscapes and the reimagined human form. "Being a painter, I was born in 1951 already an antique. After a lifetime of creating images in this post modern world I have come to champion no 'isms.' Taking to heart my eighty-year-old friend's reminder that his generation made sure everything had been done, I have proceeded to do everything in each painting," muses Stan about a recent series of oils.

Painter Timothy Nero is fascinated by the human mind. Through his work, he investigates questions about thought and consciousness. "I have developed a visual language that continuously cycles through my work whether it is painting, drawing, or sculpture. The forms can be seen as lines of reason, gordian knots, unraveling and severed gordian knots, loosened dendrites and coils of thought advancing and receding in a brooding atmospheric almost baroque space," reveals Timothy. Join us for a virtual studio tour with…
