Art in the Stacks logo with images of artwork by featured artists, Tiffany George & Cynthia RudzisDecember 1 - January 31
Featuring Tiffany George & Cynthia Rudzis in the Charley Krone Gallery

This month's Charley Krone Gallery exhibit is titled Nature and Nurture. Tiffany and Cynthia became friends while working as tattooists in Washington, D.C. The busy shop and the bustling city left them longing to create art in a more slow-paced and personal way. Their work reflects that desire and their collective need to explore nature and their interaction with the environment. Flora, fauna, and the spirit of creativity they inspire, animate their works to help them bring a bit of the outdoors inside for us all to enjoy.  The medium they have explored in this show is stained and painted glass.

Art in the Stacks is a monthly gallery series at the New Cumberland Public Library in partnership with the New Cumberland Collective. Each month will feature a new local artist exhibit in the library's gallery spaces.
