Exhibition Dates: October 28 – November 30

History meets artistry at Wild Hearts Gallery in November. Nancy and Jon Couch apply centuries old techniques to create interactive glass art. Lisa Chernoff works with kiln fused glass, an ancient technique revived in the 1960s when glass kilns found their way into independent artist's studios. Both methods present traditional techniques with contemporary imagery to inspire the viewer and grace the modern home. Learn more and meet the artists Saturday, November 8, 1-3 pm.

SUNDAY IN THE VILLAGES

Sunday, November 2nd
