Wheelock College and the Towne Art Gallery are pleased to present the work of Mary Taylor, Ellen Grabiner and Naomi Ribner, all artists that live and work in the greater Boston area. This exhibition will emphasize how these artists use the digital process, combined with mixed media, to create personal narratives in their work. Taylor, Grabiner and Ribner, each, have been studio artists for many years and came to the digital process as a way to enhance their work, however, integrated enough so that their work transcends the process.
For more information about each of these artists please go to: naomi@naomiribner.com or www.naomiribner.com, mary@marytaylorart.com, grabiner@simmons.edu or egrabiner.com/stories.html

Wheelock College and the Towne Art Gallery are pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition of the work of Katie Rafferty, an artist living and working in New Orleans. She will bring her work from her recent solo show at the Cole Pratt Gallery, New Orleans Vernacular, a series of mixed media works inspired by the indigenous architecture, as well as the visual contradictions, immeasurable energy and mixture of cultures in New Orleans. These works are a combination of collage, encaustic, monotype and engraving on paper.
Ms. Rafferty has a B.A from Louisiana State University, in Baton Rouge, and has studied at the Sorbonne in Paris as well as the Institut d'Etudes Politiques, in Aix-en-Provence, France. She will attend the reception on October 14th. For more information on Katie Rafferty, please contact the Cole Pratt Gallery at (504) 891-6789 or info@coleprattgallery.com

Wheelock College is very proud of its students and the work they have contributed for the past several years.
