The exhibit kicks off the fall gallery season and is on display at Kentlands Mansion September 7 through November 4 and at the Arts Barn September 14 through November 19. The public is invited to meet the artists at a free reception taking place in each venue on Thursday, September 27 from 7 to 8:30 p.m.

Baden, Donna Baron, Jeff Bohlander, Marylou Bono, Jasmine Bryant, Laura Davis, Sandra Davis, Jabari Jefferson, Roxana Rojas Luzon, Michael Kuchinsky, Steve Mockrin, Karen Peacock, Michelle Puhl-Price, Shyam Rele, James Russell, Linda Slattery-Sherman, Eneida Somarriba, Francine Stowe-Sinkler, Jeanne Sullivan, Jenna Wright, and Alexey Zoob.

The artists offer a wide variety of mixed media solutions and experiments featuring found objects and cloth adhered to paint, colored pencil and ink, mixed media printing techniques, tooled plaster, glassworks, and two-dimensional wood assemblages.
