“I had a chance to go by the station this week and see the artwork delivered
for the BSSS exhibit. My husband Terry hung the show since I was home recovering
after our little one's arrival on May 27th. I wanted to tell you how nice
the exhibit looks-- not only did Terry do a great job organizing and hanging
the work but the quality of the work was as I had both hoped and remembered
from the school--simply excellent. I am especially impressed with the school's
teaching of natural light effects in the plein air paintings and with the
overall uniqueness of the students' work. Beautiful stuff-- I wish I could
afford to purchase several. Also appreciate the instructor's participation
in the show-- as seen with Ron Bhoemer's and Jeffrey Stockberger as well
as Mary and Ginny's pieces. I am sure there are others. Thank you! Thank
you for your participtation at the station exhibit space!”

Pagan Pleasures vs. Christian Pain
A Conversation Led by Cleveland Morris
When the art of the West shifted from the Greco-Roman tradition to the Judeo-Christian, much was gained and much was lost.
The classical world of earthly delight and joy was transmuted into icons of physical suffering and grief.
Join us for a discussion of art’s love/hate relationship to pleasure in antiquity and today over a delicious lunch.
