We are having a reception for our Featured Artist - Peter Falotico. The Reception is Sunday, March 5th, from 2-4 pm. Everyone is invited! The influence of Persian Art, Manuscript Illumination, Cloisonné, Suprematism, artists Omar Rayo and Joseph Albers can be seen in my creations. Being selected to study fine arts at Hunter College by the sculptor Tony Smith, learning the techniques created by printmaker Vincent Longo and the color theorist Sandy Wurmfeld challenged my creative beliefs. As a student, I attended museums and galleries. Seeing fantastic art and viewing current trends helped develop my ideas. I use technical pens to create equidistant continuous lines that are carefully balanced, between positive and negative spaces. I call them Vonal. Additionally, I create embellished embossings, which I call Goffratura Abbelitto. Within my compositions, I seek emotional balance. I love what I do and continue to create. ~Peter Falotico

You can also visit the smokehouse during our Open House from 10 until 2. We’ll be raffling off ham—so be sure to stop and see us! The Smokehouse was an existing structure on the property scheduled for construction of the Chatham County Agriculture and Conference Center. The Chatham County Historical Association removed the smokehouse from the site and stored it during the construction of the new Ag Center building, then rebuilt it and returned it to the property where it had originally stood so younger generations can be shown how their ancestors lived.
