We're happy to announce that Mary Gordon, painter, sculptor, and Tyler MFA has launched her heavybubble website. This is just in time for the 16th Annual Open House and Holiday Sale.

Studios are open from noon – 5 pm
Free parking is available in the building lot.
The MADE IN PHILLY campaign takes over traditional advertising spaces to showcase the extraordinary but often untold quantity and quality of visual art being produced in Philadelphia...and connects each work displayed to the neighborhood (even block) where it was created.
Susan Richards will be showing her work with five other artists.

Skull Currency is another way of saying that our thoughts have value. Each life is measured within the skull of the one who lives it. My potato skull prints merge several traditions of ancestor veneration into irreverent portraits of what we will all someday become. They also investigate the custom of marking our bills of commerce with the faces of our most valued ancestors.

In a solo exhibition, Diane Lachman continues her fascination with color relationships. She compares color-guided composition to musical expression, applying layers of translucent oil paint to wood panels and blending them to create new, resonant hues. As in musical chords, where tension between different tones is resolved by their participation in the whole, Lachman's carefully selected color notes create surprising harmonies.
