This program helps caregivers and young children discover art together in the Museum. Listen to a story and then explore line, shape, color, and other elements of art with teaching artist Kathy Lotko. Kathy holds a B.S. in Elementary Education and an M.S. in Art Education. She taught Art in the Berlin School System at both the Elementary and Middle School levels, as well as Integrated Language Arts. She is a Docent at NBMAA and comes to us with 29 years of teaching experience. She combines literacy with various artistic media to develop her innovative weekly programs that enhance the child’s experience here at the Museum.

You are invited to the Gallery on the Green’s annual “Member/Guest Exhibition” showcasing artists who are members of the Canton Artists Guild and their invited guests. Members invite artists from their creative networks to display their artistic talents across a variety of media including painting, drawings, prints, sculpture, photography, ceramics, mixed media and fiber art. The result fills the main gallery with a superb display of local artistic talent.  

Upstairs are two solo exhibitions. In a show entitled, “Everyday People,” Kathy Schwartz celebrates the human form and the expression of the human spirit through the lines and shapes of the physical body.  The twenty pieces on display include a variety of materials including pastels, acrylic pours, fabric, dried plants and more. “My techniques are varied. Experimenting with different materials allows me to better express both the artistry of my work and the subjects themselves”.

In “Cracked and Crazed” Donna Namnoum, the second solo artist, is exhibiting over thirty ceramic works that incorporate the covered jar and other wheel thrown forms.  Throughout her career Namnoum has used the potter’s wheel as her main tool of expression helping her to create an evolving series of sculptural forms. Her current display features abstracted plant-like growths. “Each of the parts is made on the potter’s wheel and then is altered and assembled, creating forms that look alive – growing, twisting and even wilting.”

Namnoum received her M.A. in Art Education and Ceramics from the Hartford Art School at the University of Hartford. She has exhibited throughout New England and the United States, often earning awards for her entries. Namnoum’s work has frequently appeared in a variety of publications including the Hartford Courant, Art Scope and Sculpture magazine and Ceramics Monthly magazine.

Over the long weekend that follows, a burgeoning romance and the discovery of a mysterious notebook draw Catherine into the most difficult problem of all: How much of her father’s madness—or genius—will she inherit?
