Matt Duffin: Retrospection
Matt Duffin's encaustic paintings use primarily black and white tones with selected pops of color to bring attention to his irreverent subjects. Employing simplicity within the imagery allows the painstaking qualities of his methodology to shine. Encaustic works are made using wax to which pigment has been added. The wax is heated, applied to a prepared wood surface, and shaped using special brushes and tools. To achieve this level of detail requires exactitude and skill. Considering the rigorous amount of time it takes to complete each piece, it is no surprise that Duffin's themes tend to explore nostalgia, solitude and irony.

Paul Béliveau
Paul Béliveau’s Morandi is inspired by the often pastel-toned works of Italian painter Giorgio Morandi. While Béliveau has treated book spines as subject matter before, in the Morandi series the books themselves, rather than the text that decorates their covers, are treated as the aesthetic quality. Outside reference to author, subject, and image is missing and instead, Béliveau revels in the shape and volume of the books responding and building upon each other as a methodical convergence of color and form.

How To Talk So Kids Will Listen
How To Talk So Kids Will Listen
Are you getting worn down by morning mayhem, bedtime battles, sibling scuffles, dawdling and defiance? Do you try to avoid using threats, bribes and punishments, but find yourself using them anyway, just to survive the day? Would you like to learn practical and effective methods that will make life with children easier and more satisfying? Presented in partnership with the Pioneer Montessori School, come hear best-selling author Julie King introduce parents of children ages two to twelve to the language that reduces conflict, strengthens connection, and promotes cooperation between adults and children. Julie will join us virtually over Zoom, and attendees will gather in the Library's Lecture Hall to hear from Julie and engage in short breakouts to practice techniques. A Q&A with Julie will follow. Space is limited to 40 attendees, and registration is required. The program will also be livestreamed. For anyone who finds themselves locked in a power struggle with children or wondering how to manage a tricky situation (in other words, everybody at one time or another), this presentation demonstrates truly practical methods to use humor, creativity and respect, instead of bribes, threats and punishments, to engage the cooperation of children.

WOLF PLAY by Hansol Jung @ The Spot
WOLF PLAY–Hansol Jung's critically acclaimed provocative new play about the families we both choose and unchoose–comes to The Spot April 18-28, directed by Kevin Wade. WINNER! 2024 Obie Award for Playwriting WINNER! 2023 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Play "Jung's play keeps you in thrilling, unnerving suspense." - New York Magazine SHOW DESCRIPTION: When a young Korean boy is adopted by a new family via Yahoo! message boards (read: illegally re-homed) chaos is unleashed. The boy is not what he seems. When his ex-father drops him off, ready and raring to reassign power of attorney in the doorway, it is revealed that the boy's new parents are also not what they seemed. The internet is a place where people misrepresent things... In the messy aftermath of the online-adoption one thing is absolutely certain: wolves know their kind. (And they do not use internet.)

Thai Mainhard: Off the Ground
Thai Mainhard: Off the Ground
In Thai Mainhard’s exhibition "Off the Ground" vibrant, frenetic colors are collaged, painted, and drawn onto canvases that show a sense of composition and experience. Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and based in Los Angeles, California, Mainhard’s personal exploration of place seeps into each of her paintings. In her newest body of work Mainhard embraces tangible objects through an exploration of the composed still life. Expressively rendered maximalist spaces are filled with swatches of bright color, checkered table clothes, and patterned vases of loosely rendered botanicals offer a lingering invitation. These composed paintings are the physical embodiment of the artists internal world and life experience, harnessing the tension between chaos and order, figurative composition, and expressive abstraction.
