Artistry Repurposed – Artist Talk on Zoom - October 20, 2025
Date and Time: Monday, October 20, 2025 — 7:00–8:00 PM EST
Location: Online (Zoom)
Cost: Free – All Are Welcome

A Personal Invitation
Join me and an inspiring group of fellow artists for a free virtual Artists Talk hosted by The Art Gallery at the Rockefeller State Park Preserve. We’ll be sharing the stories behind the Artistry Repurposed exhibition: how we transformed discarded materials into meaningful, joyful, and sometimes unexpected works of art.
This is more than just a Zoom talk. It’s a chance to connect directly with the artists, hear about our creative processes, and ask questions live. If you’ve ever wondered how everyday objects can take on new life in an artist’s hands, this conversation will spark your curiosity and offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into how we make meaning from materials others might overlook.
Whether you’re an art lover, a fellow maker, or simply someone who believes in the magic of transformation, we’d love to have you in the (virtual) room.
