“Kindred: New work from Jenn Rawling, Miki Harder and Louisa Palmer,” the latest show at Studio & Gallery, will close Saturday, but before it does, be sure to check out an Artist Talk at 2 p.m. Saturday featuring the three artists. It all happens at the gallery, 1027 Main Ave.
“’Kindred’ explores and celebrates our threads, interconnectedness and kin,” according to Studio &. “Beyond human relationships, ‘Kindred’ examines the bonds and attachments that drive us to love deeply and defend what is dear. ‘Kin-Dred’ juxtaposes an impending doom which leaves us worried for the people, animals, plants and the environments that we care for. ‘Kindred’ nurtures seeds of inspiration, contemplation and action.”
