The Opening Reception on June 16th will feature a dance performance by the Norwalk Metropolitan Youth Ballet (choreography by Yvonne Marie-Sain and Adam Holmes) and live music by our partner INTEMPO. Curated by Korry Fellow Isabella Montenegro, this exhibition focuses on identifying and processing emotions through art, and includes work by June Ahrens, Melissa Benedek, Casey Correra, Kasimir Comunale, Chelsea Danburg, Erin Dolan, Britt Garth, Brett Masterson, Nadia Martinez, Russell Miyaki, Chris Sainato, Sharon Smalls, Brea Thomas-Young, and Kelly Walters.

If we don’t tell people how we feel, how will they know? Communication is key. There are five types of communication: verbal, non-verbal, written, listening, and visual. All of which you can experience through this exhibition. As you wander the exhibition, you may question pieces and their meaning. However, take the time to be open-minded and accept that the first thing you see, hear, watch, etc. is an experience in which is a more personal feeling or emotion for your own self. Understanding the power that there is no right or wrong answer in art and using this practice to openly and freely communicate complex emotions–could create the key to unlocking a more compassionate and open-minded society.

The exhibition runs through September 7, 2023 during regular gallery hours (Wednesday – Friday, 8am -3pm and Saturday – Sunday, 9am – 3pm).
