SUMMARY:Artist Talk and Demonstration with Resident Artist\, Melissa Zane Saturday\, May 3 rd at 11:00 AM
DESCRIPTION:Join local artist Melissa S Zane for an engaging artist talk and live painting demonstration\nduring Lancaster&#39;s Spring Art Walk. Melissa will discuss her newest exhibition\, &quot;Nature\nMagnified\,&quot; a vibrant collection of acrylic paintings that invites viewers to see the natural world\nthrough an enhanced lens of color\, texture\, and light. \nKnown for her signature layered metallic acrylic technique\, Melissa will showcase her process in\nreal time—demonstrating how she builds up rich\, textured surfaces through high-relief paintings\nwith intricate patterns\, and shimmering touches of gold and bronze. During the demo\, she’ll\nexplain how each piece takes on a life of its own\, guided by intuition and appreciation for nature\nand the small natural elements surrounding us.\n&quot;Nature Magnified&quot; explores the beauty found in the overlooked details of our environment: the\ntwist of a tree branch\, the curl of a leaf\, the play of sunlight across a petal. Through bold colors\,\norganic design\, and metallic or iridescent paints that shift with the light\, Melissa’s work\nencourages viewers to look deeper and experience nature from a fresh perspective.\nInfluenced by the Art Nouveau movement\, the intricate designs of William Morris\, and the\norganic forms celebrated by Georgia O’Keeffe\, Melissa blends realism with artistic\ninterpretation. Her paintings are more than visual experiences—they are invitations to slow\ndown\, to notice\, and to marvel. \nWhether you’re a fellow artist\, a nature lover\, or simply curious about the creative process\, this\nlive event offers a unique behind-the-scenes look at how Melissa brings her vibrant visions to\nlife. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with the artist\, ask questions\, and see a painting\nevolve before your eyes.\nFree Event – Open to the Public\nFor more info:\nhttps://www.lancasterartvault.com/shows-workshops-events/artist-talk-and-demonstration-with- resident-artist-melissa-zane

SUMMARY:Let's Get Woolly - Free Community Event First Friday\, April 4 th 5:30-8:00 PM
DESCRIPTION:Get Your Hands Woolly: Join Our Community Felting Project!\nEver wondered how a fluffy pile of sheep’s wool transforms into a cozy piece of fabric? Spoiler\nalert: it involves soap\, water\, and a lot of fun! This April First Friday\, we’re inviting YOU to be\npart of this magical process at the Lancaster Art Vault.\nYou’ll get to dive into the felting process—literally! We’ll have pre-cut pieces of wool ready for\nyou to add your personal touch to our community design. Picture this: layers of soft wool laid out\nlike shingles on a roof\, then doused with warm\, soapy water. A little massaging here\, some\nsqueezing there\, and the fibers magically cling together\, shrinking and transforming into a\nvibrant piece of felt art.\nEllen Silberlicht\, our newest resident artist (and wool-whisperer)\, will guide the process and\ncomplete the final felting magic. The finished masterpiece will be unveiled during May’s First\nFriday\, just in time for the ARTWALK weekend extravaganza!\nMore Info at www.LancasterArtVault.com\nLancaster Art Vault is located at 100 North Queen Street\, Lancaster.\nEmail Info@LancasterArtVault.com for more information.

SUMMARY:A Subtle Shift in our Perception: Mike Witmer & Matt Allyn Chapman\, Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join curio. Gallery & Creative Supply for the opening reception of A Subtle Shift in our Perception featuring work by local artists Mike Witmer and Matt Allyn Chapman on First Friday December 6th\, 5:00-8:00pm! \nAbout the show: \nThe artworks in this exhibition offer new elements of experience the longer you stay with them. The slightest change in color may be in truth the meeting of two different tones\, or multiple values coming together at an intersection. They may also be the introduction of shadow\, a rounded corner\, or an indentation in the surface\, leading you to believe they are different when they are in fact the same. It all comes down to perception. When we look\, are we using our vision\, or are we “seeing”? When we observe something\, are we making assumptions from past experience\, or are we allowing space for new meetings and understanding? \nAt its core this is a collection of works celebrating color\, and how the use of a limited palette can yield boundless results. A change in stroke direction\, one coat vs. two\, dilution and saturation\, even different manufacturers can turn a single color into multiple. Changes in the physical landscape of the surface and those that are purely optical play with how we make sense of what our eyes are seeing and what our minds are perceiving. There is illusion in the truth of these pieces\, they can be playfully serious and champion the minimal in ways that satisfy the academic and excite the expressionist.

SUMMARY:ARTIST. WOMAN. MOTHER. work by Sherry Bowman & Nichole Madonna Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of ARTIST. WOMAN. MOTHER. featuring work by local artists Sherry Bowman & Nichole Madonna \nOn view June 1st-July 27th the opening reception is First Friday June 7th 5:00-8:00pm \nABOUT THE SHOW:\nWe are given a name when we are born\, a sort of “absolute word” that serves as an identifier\, a sound that when vocalized or read helps us individualize from others. We are all called something\, and as we move through life we acquire and collect skills\, characteristics\, and experiences that also have names. They attach to us and become part of our identity. Sometimes we seek them out and accept them willingly\, sometimes they are placed on us. For Sherry Bowman and Nicole Madonna\, their names exist alongside three others specifically\, “Artist”\, “Woman”\, and “Mother”. \nAn incredible trait Sherry & Nichole share is the ability to assume these many identities simultaneously. Being able to give their attention to these competing facets with patience\, thoughtfulness\, and creativity. Navigating the landscape of their lives as individuals who are connected to others and looked to for their professionalism\, authority\, and humanity.  \nKnowing where one of these names ends and the other begins is often difficult. As the Ouroboros consumes its tail and connects its end with its beginning\, similar is the relationship of these three elements. Each influencing the others in all aspects of their being. Essential in their role and though one may expand and command a higher visibility for a time\, the balance will shift again\, providing opportunity for another to occupy the space. \nThis exhibition calls attention to this balance. Through individual and collaborative works\, both artists are able to share their unique perspective and visual language while accentuating their parallels and commonalities. Utilizing the gallery walls as a place to show artworks that were made of only themselves\, their own conceptualization\, and executed by their hands. Together this collection brings many new names\, storyteller\, educator\, creator are only a few. And it’s in their connection that brings yet another name\, “friend”.  \nView these pieces as manifestations of their voice made visual. Observations of an artist’s mind always at work\, a woman’s depth\, and a mothers paradigm.
