The Judy Black Memorial Park and Gardens is pleased to welcome Susan Harris and her art exhibit, titled “Life Patterns.” The exhibit will be on view Friday, June 10th through Tuesday, July 5th.
Harris’ display will feature abstract watercolor paintings. Harris studied art at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Mass. and Tufts University in Medford, Mass. In 1981, she was a curatorial assistant in the Medieval Art Department at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
“My passion for color and pattern is at the center of my work. There are an endless number of patterns to create and I’ve been painting them in watercolor for many years,” Harris said of her chosen style and medium. “I also have a great interest in buildings, which are the subject of many of my watercolor collages.”
It was precisely this enthusiasm for pattern that led Harris to start her own textile company, SeaCloth, in 2003. Harris’s lively abstract watercolor designs were translated onto fabric via screen printing. Her fabric designs were carried in design showrooms across the country. Harris sold the business to Kravet in 2011 to return full-time to painting and drawing.
Harris’s show at the park will include examples of her unique abstract patterns. An opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 11th from 4 to 6 pm.

We are pleased to welcome Nicole Alger and her art exhibit, titled “Animal, Vegetable, Mineral”. Alger’s display will feature inspiring realist paintings on canvas, wood and other materials. The exhibit will be on view Friday, July 8 through Monday, August 8. An opening reception will be held on Friday, July 8 from 5 to 7 pm.
For Alger, painting is a way for her to connect with her ancestors and her family’s past. “Cultivating a relationship with our ancestors is an ancient practice that was woven into daily life long before my forebears arrived on these shores,” she said. “Sustenance meant more than animal, vegetable and mineral. A connection to the past was as invaluable as food. The rituals that mark the passage of human life were the very threads of our cultural fabric.”

You’re invited to The Judy Black Memorial Park and Gardens’ annual FUNraiser on Sunday, July 10th, 2022!
We welcome indie pop music artist Sarah Kinsley, currently based in New York City and raised right here in the Nutmeg State, for a live performance beginning at 5:30 pm. A young but positively old-school musician in her approach, Kinsley sculpts smart, era-less pop music and drops it into a very modern world. She wrote and recorded many of her early songs from her college dorm room at Columbia University. Since then, she has been launched into stardom, quickly accumulating a passionate young fanbase all swooning for her ethereal disco-kissed indie songs, pulsing in technicolor. Kinsley’s style bursts at the seams with heart, melody and soul.
Performance will happen rain or shine. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets. Picnics are welcome. A cocktail reception will follow the performance for select tiered ticket levels. Tickets can be purchased on our website and are available in four tiers ranging from $15 to $250.
Pre-registration is required; tickets will not be sold at the door.
We look forward to seeing you there!
