SUMMARY:GPAG: Opening Reception | Bob Evermon\, Yuan Wen\, Maureen Sugrue\, Rose Stardust
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Opening Reception of our four newest exhibitions on Saturday\, May 2nd\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome! \nIn the Main Gallery\, Bob Evermon’s We Are the Eyes of the Stars features prints\, paintings\, and sculptures that speak to what can be sensed beneath the layers of visual art\, as well as to the little moments in life that catch one’s attention. Yuan Wen’s Unbounding combines printmaking methods with painting\, utilizing lithography and hand-drawn elements to create networks of organic forms\, suspended fragments\, and flowing gestures. \nIn the Eve Smart Gallery\, Maureen Sugrue’s Pathways features mixed media textile banners that represent ideas that came from conversations about aging\, paths taken or not taken\, and the journey to “now” in our lives. In Joe’s Lounge\, Rose Stardust’s Art\, Wit\, and Other Coping Mechanisms explores how creativity and wit help us make sense of things and keep going. It follows an arc from hope to doubt\, from dawn to dusk\, and back again.

SUMMARY:Reflection - Inspirito Vocal Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:This eclectic program of music explores the essence of humanity and reflects on the human condition as it appears in our internal self-awareness\, our relationships with others\, and our interaction with the natural world. Humanity is a complex blend of profound empathy\, creative intelligence\, and destructive potential\, often defined by its search for meaning\, connection to nature\, and capacity for both love and cruelty. We are all social creatures navigating mortality\, shaped by our interactions\, and driven by a need for compassion and a responsibility to protect our shared existence. \nThe program will include songs in different styles and genres and will highlight text and music by great Canadian artists: Dennis Lee\, author and co-founder of the House of Anansi Press\, Joni Mitchell\, Connie Kaldor and The Rankin Family. \nUnder direction of Artistic Director Sarona Mynhardt\, we will be joined by Toby Aldren on piano\, and Bernard Blary & Yewon Shin on flute.
