  • Object Memory Gallery Opening

    20*20 Gallery 20 Lansdowne Court, Lansdowne, PA, United States

    The LEDC's Art Committee invites you to join us for the opening reception for Object Memory on Saturday, February 22, from 5-8 PM at the 20*20 Gallery in Lansdowne, PA. In Object Memory, artists Jen Blazina and Ashley Catharine Smith collect, mend, and reinterpret objects—some inherited from family, others discarded by strangers—to explore how heirlooms become mythic, shaping our understanding of the past, each other, and ourselves. By turns playful and poignant, their charged objects evoke cherished memories and honor past lives while grappling with intergenerational trauma and the ever-shifting nature of the stories we pass along generation after generation.

Art educators, in particular, play a vital role in helping students manifest their visions, as dreams are the foundation of success. Dreaming has been central to my journey. Vivid, colorful images of my future have always guided me, a perspective reflected in my artwork. Growing up in

    Exhibition Untitled Sept 8–26, 2025 Opening Reception: Sept 11 2025, 5–7pm Chester County Art Association 100 N Bradford Ave West Chester, PA 19382 Does an artwork’s title provide a lens that shapes how the viewer will see the work? Does a title provide context, narrative, and emotional essence, hinting at what the artist wants us to feel, or does it impede the viewer’s interpretation? Depending on the artist you ask, the task of titling work can be an opportunity to take stock of their creation, or a nebulous exercise in seeking to honor the work and speak to the viewer.

  • A closer Look: Michael Rex – Artist Talk & Dinner

    FRIEDA 320 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, United States

    Join us for a conversation with Michael Rex in a more intimate and relaxed setting. Following the talk, dinner will be served allowing for more discussion with the artist and among guests. Rex’s artistic inspiration is deeply personal and two-fold. As a child, he watched his mother and grandmother knit yarn into intricate patterns, an early introduction to the power of line and form. Later, a transformative encounter with the work of artist Ruth Asawa in a 2017 exhibition expanded his vision of what wire could become. With a lifelong background in the arts, including dance, music, and professional television
