SUMMARY:6x10B Drawing Invitational
DESCRIPTION:Join us for May First Friday as we continue the celebration of the 6x10B Drawing Invitational exhibition! \nParticipating Artists:\nMatt Allyn Chapman\nDorothy Frey\nJeff Geib\nEvan Kitson\nJason Ward\nZane York \nIn October of 2023 we held an exhibition of drawings all focused around the use of the 6H pencil. Inspired by William de Kooning and his teachings at Black Mountain College in the 1950’s. We invited 10 artists to participate by creating original artworks all using the same materials. With this new exhibition we see the challenge re envisioned\, and with it a new set of parameters for both the Artist and their Artwork. Here it is as presented yet again by curators Jeff Geib\, Evan Kitson\, Matt Chapman & Nicole Duquette: \nMoved by the success and sheer enjoyment discovered in the 6H challenge\, we have invited 6 artists to participate and have outfitted them with the same materials\, the Faber Pitt Matte 10B\, and the Mitsubishi Hi Uni 10B\, the same surface to work on\, and the same amount of time to develop an original work of art. In a sense still pulling from the thread of de Kooning\, as he was inspired to teach using the lessons that had a great impact on him as a student. We have asked these 6 artists\, all educators\, to look into their own teaching practice and pull a lesson that they ask their students to complete. \nImage shown is by local artist Jason Ward.

SUMMARY:Understanding Perspective\, with Matt Allyn Chapman
DESCRIPTION:Perspective is an essential principle of observational drawing. It helps us understand space\, scale\, proportion\, and depth. It’s a tricky aspect to get a handle on\, though when you start to get a handle on it you will be amazed at how it can transform your creative practice. This two session workshop will focus on 1 and 2 point perspective drawing exercises\, learning how to spot the perspective of objects from observation\, and using these new skills to create exciting compositions in your artworks.  \nSpace is limited\, pre-registration is required. Please note curio. is located down a flight of stairs. \nDetails:\n-The workshop will meet on Monday April 14th and Monday April 21st 7:00pm-9:00pm\n-Suitable for ages 13-adult\n-Class will be lead by curio’s own Matt Allyn Chapman\n-All materials will be provided\, just bring yourself!

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Isiah Bates
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk on Tuesday March 11th 7:00-8:00pm with gallery artist Isiah Bates and his show Visions of Modular Dreamscapes\, currently on view through March 29th.\nCurator Matt Allyn Chapman will lead the conversation\, questions and thoughts are welcome throughout!\nLight refreshments will be served. \nSelection from the Exhibition Copy: \nOur dreams have purpose\, though mysterious and hard to fully grasp\, we are coming to understand them more and more. Memory retention\, emotional repair\, cognitive stimulation during periods of rest\, these are just a few of the benefits of our dreams. Physically and mentally\, they are deeply important\, though creatively\, they can be instrumental. Isiah draws from the creative well that his dreams have sprung to mesmerizing effect. Each time pulling something to the surface that feels impossible. Landscapes never visited\, people and beings both familiar and strange\, entities and energies that only make sense in the logic and possibility of the dreaming world. It’s really when his hands and mind connect that they are made material. \n“This body of work represents a true exploration of self\, in its purest form. An unfiltered reality waiting to be pieced together. By letting my hand move across the surface without any true direction\, I can actively pull from this other reality. This process lessens the stress of perfection and creates a direct link between the waking world and that of the mind. This allows me to create a dreamscape of raw emotion and lived experience. Then I sit back and analyze with the viewer. I may not know what they all mean quite yet\, but a new piece of the story is revealed with each painting. This is what drives me to make more. An ongoing process of self discovery through art. I am both the artist and the audience.”

SUMMARY:Visions of Modular Dreamscapes: New Work by Isiah Bates
DESCRIPTION:Join curio. for the opening reception of Visions of Modular Dreamscapes featuring new work by Isiah Bates on First Friday February 7th 5:00-8:00pm \nA selection for the exhibition copy: \nWho are you? \nA question we encounter often. Whether getting to know a new person\, educators planting the seed in consideration of the future\, or the voices of our mind that roll around knocking into other thoughts that vie for our attention. Many of us generally have a prepared answer for this\, though is only a few short words or phrases really enough? \nArtist Isiah Bates has a deep relationship with this very question\, and offers countless responses through his drawings & paintings. Nebulous in their space\, vast in scale\, and deep in narrative. His pieces offer a multiverse of scenarios that all share a singular point of origin\, himself. Realized in the trails of a well trodden daydream\, or pulled from the sliver of space between his sleeping and waking mind. His pieces brim with surrealist interest\, abstract sensibilities\, and with symbols and iconography from various histories both universal and personal. \n“I see dreams as a glimpse into the reality of the mind. Not to say that every dream has some deep meaning behind it\, but some might. These ‘visions’ have led me to explore the inner workings of my mind and open a dialogue between my conscious and subconscious self.”

SUMMARY:A Subtle Shift in our Perception Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join curio. Gallery & Creative Supply for an evening in the gallery celebrating the A Subtle Shift in our Perception exhibition with an Artist Talk with Mike Witmer and Matt Allyn Chapman. Be a part of our conversation as Witmer and Chapman discuss their conceptual explorations\, materials usage\, process\, and building a series with extreme limitations. Questions welcome\, light snacks will be served! \n“Seeing\, vision\, observation and perception may seem like four terms that describe the same thing. Though for artists Mike Witmer and Matt Allyn Chapman\, they ask that you provide each the time and consideration they need to be individual actions before merging them together as we so often do. \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?”

SUMMARY:A Subtle Shift in our Perception: Mike Witmer & Matt Allyn Chapman
DESCRIPTION:Join us for January First Friday as we continue the celebration of our exhibition A Subtle Shift in our Perception featuring the works of local artists Mike Witmer and Matt Allyn Chapman.  Open with extended hours 5:00-8:00pm. \n“At 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. \nFinding appreciation in the slow down and reverence in the unique conversations we have with abstraction\, it is our desire to share that which we discover for ourselves that brought us together in this place. Witmer and Chapman have found an incredibly strong connection in their mutual fascination with nuance\, and their respect for the subtle shifts in our perception.”

Questions and conversation are welcome; light refreshments will be served! \n—————– \nThe exhibition is on view through November 30th \n“It began on a sunny day in Mexico\, February 2022. My shadow emerged in front of me\, perfectly placed. And suddenly there she was in the clear water of the lagoon inviting me. My breath caught; who was this creature? My doppelganger\, a creative beckoning. And I felt enamored and I responded to the call: yes. \nThis discovery led to the Water Nymph\, Weirdo Goddess and Little Love Stories series\, all tied together in a surrealist imagining of my curiosity about our relationship with nature (and each other) and how we communicate\, the sensual connections. If we pay attention\, the Weirdo Goddess and Water Nymphs emerge and appear as apparitions of nature offering small gestures\, gifts and amulets of protection we receive via portals like water\, plants\, animals\, rest and daydreams.”\n– Alicia Byler

SUMMARY:Opening Reception for Weirdo Goddess & Other Lover Stories\, new works by Alicia Byler
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of this exhibition featuring the work of Lancaster artist Alicia Byler! \n“It began on a sunny day in Mexico\, February 2022. My shadow emerged in front of me\, perfectly placed. And suddenly there she was in the clear water of the lagoon inviting me. My breath caught; who was this creature? My doppelganger\, a creative beckoning. And I felt enamored and I responded to the call: yes.\nThis discovery led to the Water Nymph\, Weirdo Goddess and Little Love Stories series\, all tied together in a surrealist imagining of my curiosity about our relationship with nature (and each other) and how we communicate\, the sensual connections. If we pay attention\, the Weirdo Goddess and Water Nymphs emerge and appear as apparitions of nature offering small gestures\, gifts and amulets of protection we receive via portals like water\, plants\, animals\, rest and daydreams.” \nCollage\, perhaps more than most other mediums\, has an “automatic” quality. In the sense that the maker searches for imagery until their eyes land on an image and something signals “this is what you’ve been looking for”. Sifting through images\, colors\, textures\, shapes\, and words becomes a mission of expression and conceptual understanding. For Alicia\, the results are as much artworks as they are visual communications with a universal consciousness. Between each layer she pins inspirations\, resolutions reside inside the structures she builds\, and contemplations breathe in the negative space. Creating narratives\, atmospheres\, and landscapes that pull on the threads of dreams\, memory\, and the thoughts that reside in the spaces between. Poetic and meticulous\, at times humorous while also a touch haunting.

SUMMARY:Imagination & Found Imagery: Collage Art Books with Mimi Shapiro
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, artist and instructor Mimi Shapiro encourages you to focus on your interests through collage. Cutting images from various sources and rearranging them to resemble those ideas that you see in your imagination. Using a zine or an existing book as the core surface\, the book’s structure will hold your collaged images.  \nMimi deeply believes in the many possibilities with collage\, “It’s the physical nature of this medium. Best of all\, your individual sensibilities are there to guide you.” A few possible topics of exploration could be working with patterns and textures\, incorporating typography or poetry\, and playing with color.  \nParticipants are asked to bring a found book- any size or subject matter\, to use as their collage surface\, think of it like a “sketchbook”. Collage material from magazines will be available\, but you are welcome to bring your own if you have a favorite subject matter. Glue and scissors will be provided for use during the workshop.  \nSpace is limited\, pre-registration is required. Please note curio. is located down a flight of stairs.

SUMMARY:Sound of Creativity with Kenneth-Michael Ebert
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of meditation\, reflection\, and creation as curio. welcomes our dear friend and sound practitioner Kenneth-Michael Ebert to our space for a special collaborative event. We invite you to experience the incredible soundscapes created by Kenneth-Michael and create works of art inspired by your audio journey. \nBeginning with a 30 minute sound meditation\, participants will have the opportunity to give themselves over to the sound and disconnect from the world around them. Using a multitude of instruments\, vocal toning\, and silences\, Kenneth-Michael builds on his sounds intuitively. Allowing the energy and flow of the atmosphere to guide each action until reaching a conclusion making each session as unique as the individuals participating. \nFollowing the meditation\, there will be a creative session where we encourage you to explore visual responses and representations of your experience. You may use whatever materials you like as we ask that you bring these items with you. We will have tables set up\, chairs\, easels\, drawing boards\, and drawing horses available for use. Coming together\, making time for yourself\, and creating with others are the goals of this event. Bringing together the restorative properties of sound meditation with the soul enriching qualities of making visual art.

SUMMARY:Pocket Art Swap #10: Myth Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of Pocket Art Swap Number 10: Memories \nMemories are powerful. They hold valuable threads of who we were\, and who we are. By nature\, they only exist in the past and though their clarity can sometimes feel like crystal\, they are malleable as soft clay in our hands. \nWith the ability to travel across time\, a memory can be recalled over and over. Sometimes as a source of comfort\, others as a remembrance of pain or loss. They can strike without warning as they are often attached to other senses such as smell\, taste\, or touch. Memories can also exist in the collective. Families\, communities\, and generations passing their histories on to their youth. Popular culture disseminated across the airwaves of the radio\, television\, or streaming service- beamed to our screens and stored in our minds’ visual vocabulary vault\, only to be resurfaced when someone says “…remember when?”. \nIt’s in these moments of recollection that we’ve asked the artists to examine and explore. To mine their mind\, see what they come back with\, and let the ideas overflow into their artworks. \nCurio. Owners Nicole Duquette and Matt Chapman first developed the pocket art swap in 2019. Both wanted to create a way to connect artists together and celebrate the individuality each of us hold in a unique and meaningful way. Utilizing a mini pad of paper measuring only 2.5 inches by 3.75 inches\, each artist could fill their pages any way they saw fit. Culminating in a “pop up” style exhibition\, the artists were asked to come together and share their creations. Each participant would then receive a collection of each other’s mini works to keep for themselves.

SUMMARY:Pocket Art Swap #9: Myth Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Pocket Art Swap: Myth featuring 16 local artists and 240 miniature works! \nMyths have captured our collective imagination for centuries… told around a fire\, over meals\, within communities and passed on to new generations. Some tell of heroes\, gods and goddesses\, mysteries that confound and try to explain the unknown\, while others explain the creation of the world and its inhabitants. You can find a myth around every corner and under every stone. \nMuch like the square and the rectangle\, myths are stories\, though not all stories are myths. At times hard to define or pin down\, there is a deeper essence of the profound inside a myth. An ancient quality that has matured with the ages as it’s been told and retold. The works in this exhibition add new iterations to timeless symbols. Each artist landed on a departure point that has spoken to them in some way. The resulting collections are visual testaments to the importance and relevance of myth in its many forms. \nPocket Art Swap was formed by Nicole Duquette and Matt Chapman in 2019 as a way to connect artists together and celebrate the individuality each of us hold in a unique and meaningful way. Inspired by a pad of Stonehenge Legion paper measuring only 2.5 inches by 3.75 inches\, they envisioned an exhibition showcasing collections of artist trading cards that would be swapped among the participating artists after the pop-up show\, creating an instant collection of personal artist trading cards.

SUMMARY:ARTIST. WOMAN. MOTHER. Artist Talk with Sherry Bowman & Nichole Madonna
DESCRIPTION:Join us in celebrating Sherry Bowman and Nichole Madonna in their exhibition ARTIST. WOMAN. MOTHER. as we host an Artist Talk in the gallery on Wednesday July 10th 7:00-8:00pm.\nWe will discuss their individual works and collaborative pieces\, the repetition of symbols and their significance\, the mixed media explorations\, and their shared identity as artists\, women and mothers.\nConversation and questions are welcome! Light refreshments will be served. We look forward to you joining us. \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.

SUMMARY:curio. Urban Sketching: April
DESCRIPTION:Urban Sketching is a wonderful way to explore your surroundings and capture the energy and excitement of what you see. A trusty sketchbook\, your favorite travel materials\, and your keen eye is all you need to make visually interesting drawings from observation. Architecture\, the hustle and bustle of cars and people\, powerlines and the movement of the clouds are all possible inspirations in this laid back\, exploratory workshop series. Over these 2\, two hour sessions\, participants can discover how to translate what they see into their sketchbook as instructor Matt Allyn Chapman provides demonstrations and one on one interactions as we visit specific locations. \nThis two week workshop will be meeting on location Saturday April 20th & 27th 10:00-12:00pm \nThis workshop is a Bring Your Own Supplies meetup! Bring your favorite items or try something new.\nSuggested materials include easily portable items such as:\n-Sketchbook\n-Fineliner Pens\n-Markers\n-Travel Watercolor Set\n-Graphite Pencils\n-Colored Pencils \nA few other considerations may be to dress in a comfortable fashion for the forecasted weather and bring along a camp chair should you require a seat for this two hour workshop.
