SUMMARY:Craft Corner
DESCRIPTION:Life in Harmony: Mandalas by AnamikaOn view: June 5-July 3Opening: Friday\, June 5 | 5-7pmExhibition statement:Mandala artwork symbolizes harmony\, balance\, and the interconnectedness of life. Intricate patterns radiate from the center\, representing unity and cosmic order. With its vibrant colors and sacred geometry\, the mandala invites viewers into a meditative space\, offering a visual journey toward inner peace\, spiritual awakening\, and universal energy. About the artist:Anamika Sinha is a self-taught artist whose creative journey began in childhood. Growing up\, she was naturally drawn to art\, exploring drawing and expression at an early age. Although she did not have access to formal training due to location constraints\, her father played an important role in nurturing her interest and guiding her first steps in art.  As life progressed\, academic priorities took over and art slowly faded into the background. For nearly two decades\, she was completely away from creative practice\, focusing instead on studies\, career responsibilities\, marriage\, and raising a family. Amid the busy and demanding years of raising three boys\, she felt the need to reconnect with something personal and fulfilling.  In 2022\, she returned to art\, picking up from where she had left off many years ago. Since then\, there has been no looking back. Her artistic journey has become a space of rediscovery\, growth\, and healing. With every artwork\, she continues to learn\, improve\, and evolve her style.  She is especially drawn to detailed work\, whether it is human portraits\, animal studies\, or intricate mandala art. Mandalas\, in particular\, feel meditative and grounding for her\, while portraits allow her to capture emotion and expression. Her work reflects patience\, depth\, and a strong emotional connection to her subjects\, marking a powerful return to her lifelong passion.    Artist statement:I started my artistic journey in 2022\, and since then I have been learning and exploring different styles of art. I am still growing as an artist and discovering my own voice through practice and observation.  I enjoy creating detailed artwork\, as I love focusing on small elements that bring life to a piece. Mandala art is very special to me because it feels meditative and calming. When I create mandalas\, I feel peaceful and fully present in the moment.  Along with mandalas\, I also enjoy making portraits of people and animals. Through portraits\, I try to capture emotions\, expressions\, and the quiet stories behind each subject.  My work is a journey of learning\, patience\, and exploration\, where I express both detail and emotion in different ways.  Instagram

I am still growing as an artist and discovering my own voice through practice and observation.  I enjoy creating detailed artwork\, as I love focusing on small elements that bring life to a piece. Mandala art is very special to me because it feels meditative and calming. When I create mandalas\, I feel peaceful and fully present in the moment.  Along with mandalas\, I also enjoy making portraits of people and animals. Through portraits\, I try to capture emotions\, expressions\, and the quiet stories behind each subject.  My work is a journey of learning\, patience\, and exploration\, where I express both detail and emotion in different ways.  Instagram

SUMMARY:ACP BYOB: Linocut Printmaking
DESCRIPTION:Life in Harmony: Mandalas by AnamikaOn view: June 5-July 3Opening: Friday\, June 5 | 5-7pmExhibition statement:Mandala artwork symbolizes harmony\, balance\, and the interconnectedness of life. Intricate patterns radiate from the center\, representing unity and cosmic order. With its vibrant colors and sacred geometry\, the mandala invites viewers into a meditative space\, offering a visual journey toward inner peace\, spiritual awakening\, and universal energy. About the artist:Anamika Sinha is a self-taught artist whose creative journey began in childhood. Growing up\, she was naturally drawn to art\, exploring drawing and expression at an early age. Although she did not have access to formal training due to location constraints\, her father played an important role in nurturing her interest and guiding her first steps in art.  As life progressed\, academic priorities took over and art slowly faded into the background. For nearly two decades\, she was completely away from creative practice\, focusing instead on studies\, career responsibilities\, marriage\, and raising a family. Amid the busy and demanding years of raising three boys\, she felt the need to reconnect with something personal and fulfilling.  In 2022\, she returned to art\, picking up from where she had left off many years ago. Since then\, there has been no looking back. Her artistic journey has become a space of rediscovery\, growth\, and healing. With every artwork\, she continues to learn\, improve\, and evolve her style.  She is especially drawn to detailed work\, whether it is human portraits\, animal studies\, or intricate mandala art. Mandalas\, in particular\, feel meditative and grounding for her\, while portraits allow her to capture emotion and expression.

SUMMARY:THE BIG SIT: Not Your Average Picnic
DESCRIPTION:Life in Harmony: Mandalas by AnamikaOn view: June 5-July 3Opening: Friday\, June 5 | 5-7pmExhibition statement:Mandala artwork symbolizes harmony\, balance\, and the interconnectedness of life. Intricate patterns radiate from the center\, representing unity and cosmic order. With its vibrant colors and sacred geometry\, the mandala invites viewers into a meditative space\, offering a visual journey toward inner peace\, spiritual awakening\, and universal energy. About the artist:Anamika Sinha is a self-taught artist whose creative journey began in childhood. Growing up\, she was naturally drawn to art\, exploring drawing and expression at an early age. Although she did not have access to formal training due to location constraints\, her father played an important role in nurturing her interest and guiding her first steps in art.  As life progressed\, academic priorities took over and art slowly faded into the background. For nearly two decades\, she was completely away from creative practice\, focusing instead on studies\, career responsibilities\, marriage\, and raising a family. Amid the busy and demanding years of raising three boys\, she felt the need to reconnect with something personal and fulfilling.  In 2022\, she returned to art\, picking up from where she had left off many years ago. Since then\, there has been no looking back. Her artistic journey has become a space of rediscovery\, growth\, and healing. With every artwork\, she continues to learn\, improve\, and evolve her style.  She is especially drawn to detailed work\, whether it is human portraits\, animal studies\, or intricate mandala art. Mandalas\, in particular\, feel meditative and grounding for her\, while portraits allow her to capture emotion and expression. Her work reflects patience\, depth\, and a strong emotional connection to her subjects\, marking a powerful return to her lifelong passion.    Artist statement:I started my artistic journey in 2022\, and since then I have been learning and exploring different styles of art. I am still growing as an artist and discovering my own voice through practice and observation.  I enjoy creating detailed artwork\, as I love focusing on small elements that bring life to a piece. Mandala art is very special to me because it feels meditative and calming. When I create mandalas\, I feel peaceful and fully present in the moment.  Along with mandalas\, I also enjoy making portraits of people and animals. Through portraits\, I try to capture emotions\, expressions\, and the quiet stories behind each subject.  My work is a journey of learning\, patience\, and exploration\, where I express both detail and emotion in different ways.  Instagram

About the artist:Anamika Sinha is a self-taught artist whose creative journey began in childhood. Growing up\, she was naturally drawn to art\, exploring drawing and expression at an early age. Although she did not have access to formal training due to location constraints\, her father played an important role in nurturing her interest and guiding her first steps in art.  As life progressed\, academic priorities took over and art slowly faded into the background. For nearly two decades\, she was completely away from creative practice\, focusing instead on studies\, career responsibilities\, marriage\, and raising a family. Amid the busy and demanding years of raising three boys\, she felt the need to reconnect with something personal and fulfilling.  In 2022\, she returned to art\, picking up from where she had left off many years ago. Since then\, there has been no looking back. Her artistic journey has become a space of rediscovery\, growth\, and healing. With every artwork\, she continues to learn\, improve\, and evolve her style.  She is especially drawn to detailed work\, whether it is human portraits\, animal studies\, or intricate mandala art. Mandalas\, in particular\, feel meditative and grounding for her\, while portraits allow her to capture emotion and expression. Her work reflects patience\, depth\, and a strong emotional connection to her subjects\, marking a powerful return to her lifelong passion.    Artist statement:I started my artistic journey in 2022\, and since then I have been learning and exploring different styles of art. I am still growing as an artist and discovering my own voice through practice and observation.  I enjoy creating detailed artwork\, as I love focusing on small elements that bring life to a piece. Mandala art is very special to me because it feels meditative and calming. When I create mandalas\, I feel peaceful and fully present in the moment.  Along with mandalas\, I also enjoy making portraits of people and animals. Through portraits\, I try to capture emotions\, expressions\, and the quiet stories behind each subject.  My work is a journey of learning\, patience\, and exploration\, where I express both detail and emotion in different ways.  Instagram
