As we celebrate America's 250th birthday, join local historian Jim Segrave-Daly for a lively discussion of the heroic men and women who played critical roles in America's founding.

| | May Art Gallery: Janet Stern | | Janet Stern, a graduate of the Hartford Art School, developed a technique in which she etches into wet paint to create an initial image. After the paint dries, she employs many methods of applying more paint to produce the whimsical works. There are several major series that comprise the remaining inventory of approximately 500 pieces, both on canvas and paper. All works employ a combination of acrylic and enamel paint. | | |
