In Haiti, art speaks of resilience where a convergence of cultures, unforgiving climate and weather patterns, geologic occurrences, and a history of political unrest have contributed to the spirited and vibrant art of the country. The museums' exhibition will include various types of art popular to Haiti including paintings, art flags and metal sculpture.

This exhibit is sponsored in part by the Centre Foundation Giving Circle and Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.

Paulette Lorraine Berner Gallery
Jennifer Shuey
November 1 - November 24, 2019

Jennifer began exploring her creative side through classes at the Art Alliance of Central Pennsylvania. Later at an artist's retreat at Hameau Farm, she borrowed some pastels, experimented with this tactile medium, and fell in love with its ability to quickly capture the beauty and character of the natural landscape. Pastels are vibrant and spontaneous, working with them gives Jen an almost meditative creative outlet.

Photography Gallery
Wendy Bechtold
November 1 - November 24, 2019

Wendy began her love for photography at age 4 when her aunt gave her a 110 camera. She learned as much as she could from her aunt and continued to develop her skill by experimenting with natural light, night photography, filters, and black and white.

Sieg Gallery
Gloria Griffith
November 1 - November 24, 2019

Gloria began using her artistic talent to express herself at an early age. She received encouragement from teachers in her early years and continued painting as an adult. After raising her children and a move to Tampa, Florida, she was able to work full-time as an artist. The figurative paintings on display were developed from recollections and memories of dining out.
