The exhibit features works by Karen Silver Bloom and Naiad Einsel.

Karen Silver Bloom—“Small Wonders”: Collectible shadow boxes filled with vintage toys, ephemera, and artwork. The boxes are three-dimensional illustrations that draw the viewer in to make a personal connection upon their own fond memories. Appealing to the child in all of us, thankfully, some of us never grow up! Karen’s shadow boxes have been featured in national magazines, Country Living books, and on HGTV.

Naiad Einsel—“Art from the Heart”: Renowned Westport illustrator, Naiad Einsel’s unique valentines to her artist husband, Walter Einsel, during their 47 years of time together. They lovingly created drawings, collages, sculptures and poems expressing their love. This is a sampling from her extraordinary collection.

The opening reception, which includes light refreshments, is on Tuesday, January 13, from 6:30 to 8 p.m.
