Kindred Threads is a group of six Georgetown artists who have begun emerging after two years of relative isolation and recently have come together to work collaboratively on our quilted art. The theme of their exhibit is “Emergence”, which they think describes the process they are currently engaged in, both as a working artist group and as a community. The group has re-discovered the synergistic effect that drives their current art collaborations. Their art, which is both abstract and representational, both 2-D and 3-D, reflects this process of coming back into view after a long period of concealment and isolation. They hope to engage viewers who are likewise continuing the long process of emerging in these years following the tumult of a global pandemic. Kindred Threads is made up of Susan Hopppenworth, Sally Gradle, Cheryl Johnson, Cindy Loos, Katie Winter and Carol Wright.

Cindy Dow Savary has always had a passion for art and has been a crafter all her life. After retiring in August 2017, Cindy took her first stained glass class in April 2018 and by June 2019, her work was exhibited at the City of Round Rock Texas Library. From that showing, Cindy received her first commission to repair a piece that would become part of a new Airbnb called Annabella’s Studio in Round Rock, Texas. The client wanted to honor the memory of her friend, Charlie, the original artist.
Cindy has continued to create panels to honor the memories of loved ones including her mother, who died from cancer in 1959 when Cindy was only three and a half years old. With the help of other stained-glass artists who created patterns of her mom’s paintings, Cindy was able to create a stained-glass panel for each of her mom’s paintings, including this one Zinnia’s in A Vase.
In 2019, Cindy was approached by the Publisher of Glass Patterns Quarterly to write and fabricate instructional articles. She has been writing for them for 4 years now and has made the cover four times.
In 2020, while the world was going through Covid-19, Cindy was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 2, Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. During her chemotherapy treatment, surgery and later radiation, Cindy continued to work with stained glass as it helped her to keep a cheerful outlook.
In most of Cindy’s creations, she incorporates a piece of glass that is either hard to find or has been discontinued. Each piece can take anywhere from 4 hours to 4 weeks to complete. For more of Cindy’s work, visit www.instagram.com/cindy.savary77.

Wesleyan artists are a group of senior citizens, over the age of 75, who live at the Wesleyan Independent Living. There, they share an art studio where they work on their artistic skills through classes and workshops and create their art pieces. They organize regular exhibits for Wesleyan facilities. Art provides for them a unique form of communication and personal growth.
Each artist brings a different background to his/her art. Among their ranks are a professional artist, former art teachers, many who have developed their artistic skill under a variety of art mentors and a few who are finding their artistic expression for the first time.
Judy Griffith’s painting “Wesleyan Plein Air” exemplifies the artistic skill and love of art that prevails among the artists at the Wesleyan. Judy works with acrylics and collages. She regularly exhibits her art at the Wesleyan and at St. Andrew Episcopal Church. Prior to retirement, Judy was a school administrator.

Step into the mesmerizing realm of Indian folk art with me at this exhibition. While my professional journey revolves around the intricate world of scientific research as a Ph.D. in Chemistry, my heart finds solace and joy in the strokes of a paintbrush, weaving tales of tradition and culture.
As an avid painter driven by passion rather than profession, I am thrilled to showcase the enchanting beauty of Indian folk art. Through Alpona, Madhubani, and Warli, I invite you to delve into a world where colors dance and stories come alive on canvas.
Transport yourself to the enchanting landscapes of Bengal through the intricate art form of Alpona, with its intricate patterns, speaks of timeless traditions. Rooted in tradition and steeped in cultural significance, Alpona is more than just a form of decoration; it is a sacred ritual, an expression of devotion, and a celebration of life. In Bengal (eastern state in India), Alpona adorns homes during festive occasions and auspicious ceremonies with its vibrant patterns and symmetrical designs. With its flowing lines and intricate motifs inspired by nature, Alpona captures the essence of Bengal’s rich artistic heritage. From geometric patterns to floral motifs, each Alpona design is a masterpiece in its own right, showcasing the timeless beauty and elegance of Bengal folk art. Madhubani whispers tales of mythology and folklore, each stroke narrating a story of its own. And then there’s Warli, the rustic charm of rural life immortalized on canvas, reminding us of our deep-rooted connection with nature.
Though my days may be filled with scientific endeavors, my evenings are adorned with the hues of passion and creativity. Join me in this celebration of artistry and culture, where the worlds of science and art intertwine to create something truly magical.
In embracing both my scientific and artistic sides, I have discovered a profound sense of fulfillment. Come, be a part of this journey as we explore the rich heritage and captivating beauty of Alpona, Madhubani, and Warli together.
