Join us to celebrate the culmination of the Chanel Thervil artist residency, with an opening reception for "Feel the Flow" on view at the Piano Craft Gallery, August 6 - 29. Come for exciting new youth art, good conversation, and light refreshments. Admission is free, but please register so we will know you are coming. This is an excellent opportunity for friends and supporters of the Teen Bridge and Artist-in-Resident programs to see the latest creations from this dynamic group of young adults.

Haitian American artist and educator Chanel Thervil will be our 2021 resident artist. Her project, Feel the Flow, will guide teen fellows on an investigation of the body as a vessel in three parts. Feel the Flow will first explore adornment—how we decorate our vessels with a focus on Aesthetics/Appearance; then Movement—how our vessels move with an emphasis on the mechanics of the body and how we move through the world; and finally Resilience—how we feel inside our vessels with a focus on how internal feelings correlate with the external. Each week, she will explore the themes via drawing, collage, and fibers. The residency will culminate with the creation of mixed media banners that represent each of the teen fellows.
