Current Exhibit - The Power of Words
September 7-October 25, 2018​

Quote by Maya Angelou

The Monastery Gallery of Art is pleased to present The Power of Words. This exhibit is on loan from the Clare Gallery in Hartford. It was performed by Susan Kapuscinski Gaylord on January 14, 2017.

The large scale calligraphic work, done on paper with fluid acrylic paint was then hung on the walls of the Clare Gallery.

The Monastery Gallery of Art is thrilled to be the first traveling location for this exhibit.

Additionally, the artist will be visiting and performing a new work art specifically for the Monastery Gallery of Art on September 23, 2018 from 3-5pm.
