“Personal transformation can and does have global effects. As we go, so goes the world, for the world is us. The revolution that will save the world is ultimately a personal one.”

Art Exhibition Closing: Metamorphosis
Join us for an afternoon of art and community.
On the heels of a VERY successful and enjoyable Book Festival yesterday, we are holding the CLOSING of our latest art exhibition, Metamorphosis: Then and Now, today.
Join us from 2-4 p.m. for an engaging afternoon of art and community as we gather to pay homage to the artists of the Metamorphosis Exhibition.
This exhibit by ten Jacksonville women, as curated by artist Tatiana Kitchen, is intended to show how each artist has changed over the years…in the context of the rest of the world. Featuring Sharon Goldman, Elena Ohlander, Anna Miller, Marsha Glazière, Nykia Jackson, Barbara Hionides, Maya Freeman, Julissa Marie, Deja Gee, and Dimelza Broche. (Above art by Barbara Hionides.)
Join us for an afternoon of fun and fancy, community and connection, and the transformative power of gathering around art, words, and ideas, together.
Register HERE.
Cheers,
Jennifer Wolfe
