SUMMARY:On Being Human: Mosaic Meditations by Cynthia Fisher
DESCRIPTION:On Being Human: Mosaic Meditations by Cynthia Fisher\nSeptember 18 – December 20\, 2026 in the Allie Kussin Main Gallery \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, October 6\, 6 – 8 PM (RSVP appreciated)\nMosaic Activity: during Free Family Day\, Saturday\, October 10\, 2 – 4 PM (registration appreciated)\nArtist Talk: Wednesday\, November 7\, 3 – 4 PM (RSVP appreciated) \nDriven by curiosity and a background in Wildlife Biology\, Cynthia Fisher has created varied and philosophical works that seek to elevate mosaics beyond the world of craft and into fine art. Through inspiring cultural conversations\, Fisher aims to engage the viewer in questioning our impact on the natural world. \nUtilizing a wide range of materials\, including vitreous glass and broken pottery\, the tactile and textured nature of the medium forces us to share the space. Prompting questions about how we currently engage with the world around us and how it may engage with us. Through her works\, she explores our environmental impact on our planet\, addressing not only the greatness of human life\, but our responsibility towards the natural world. \n“I do have reasons for hope: our clever brains\, the resilience of nature\, the indomitable human spirit\, and above all\, the commitment of young people when they’re empowered to take action.” – Jane Goodall \nLearn more at theUmbrellaArts.org/being-human

SUMMARY:Menjunje/Amalgamation: An Exploration of Language and Identity by Shelly “Lola” Freund September 23 - November 16\, 2026 in the Wedge Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Menjunje/Amalgamation: An Exploration of Language and Identity by Shelly “Lola” Freund\nSeptember 23 – November 16\, 2026 in the Wedge Gallery \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, October 6\, 6 – 8 PM (RSVP appreciated)\nDrop-in Fingerpainting Activity: during Free Family Day\, Saturday\, October 10\, 2 – 4 PM (registration appreciated)\nArtist Talk: Friday\, October 23\, 5 – 6 PM – Artist Talk (RSVP appreciated) \nArtist Shelly “Lola” Freund utilizes brightly colored renditions of her own fingerprints and objects reminiscent of family keepsakes to reflect on her multicultural identity. By using her own body as the subject of her work\, Freund asks us to consider how identity is categorized and interpreted in our modern world.   \nFreund’s sweeping canvases feature vibrant pinks and blues that shimmer with the additions of rhinestones\, glitter\, and copper. As light bounces from one canvas to the next\, the viewer is taken on a journey through the artist’s own diasporic origins. Whorls of string create pathways\, as she weaves between English\, Spanish\, and Hebrew\, reflected amongst the titles. \nFreund’s painted geographies ask us to engage with questions of multiculturalism\, social tensions\, and attempt to identify the line between assimilation and acculturation. \nThe Umbrella Arts Galleries are free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Whorl: Vertical Gallery Activation by Debra Fleury
DESCRIPTION:Whorl: Vertical Gallery Activation by Debra Fleury\nSeptember 23\, 2026 – February 26\, 2027 \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, October 6\, 6 – 8 PM (RSVP appreciated)\nDrop-in Drawing Activity: during Free Family Day\, Saturday\, October 10\, 2 – 4 PM (registration appreciated) \nOur inaugural Vertical Gallery Activation features a multi-media installation from Massachusetts artist Debra Fleury. Influenced by the human experience\, Fleury’s work seeks to encourage exploration and evoke a sense of joy and wonder. \nTranslucent fabric has been painted in a watercolor effect and sewn together\, creating channels and undulating patterns that are then filled with wire. Through this process\, “a hidden internal world is made visible\, giving shape to what is deeply felt but not easily named.” The work’s suggestion of structure and mercurial nature constantly transforms the piece\, allowing for a range of viewing experiences. \nFleury’s installation evokes a sense of curiosity in the viewer as they explore and experience the energy and evolution of her work in real time. \nThe Umbrella Arts Galleries are free and open to all. \nLearn more at theUmbrellaArts.org/whorl

SUMMARY:Disperse: Art Ramble by Helen Duncan
DESCRIPTION:Disperse: Art Ramble by Helen Duncan\nSeptember 28 – November 13\, 2026 on the Fairyland Pond Trail\, Hapgood Wright Town Forest \nThis year’s Art Ramble features work by multi-media artist Helen Duncan. Duncan’s porcelain clay and wire forms are dispersed along the Fairyland Pond Trail in the Hapgood Wright Town Forest\, right off of Concord Center. Duncan’s delicate dandelion-esque pieces come alive on the trail\, responding to their environment by shifting with the breeze and reflecting sunlight. Through these exchanges\, as well as our own impact on the work\, we are asked to examine how the varied elements of the world around us may interact with each other. \nThrough her outdoor installation\, Duncan aims to create a space that “encourages reflection and awareness of the delicate balances that shape both the natural world and our own lived experiences\,” inviting viewers to slow down\, look\, and take notice. \nThe Umbrella Arts Galleries are free and open to all. \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, October 6\, 6:00 – 8:00 PM (RSVP appreciated) \nArtist Walks (RSVP appreciated):\nSaturday\, October 10\, 2:00 – 4:00 PM (every 30 minutes) with Free Family Day\nTuesday\, October 13\, 9:00 – 10:00 AM\nThursday\, November 5\, 3:00 – 4:00 PM

SUMMARY:Yap and Yarn: An Artist Chat with Shelly “Lola” Freund
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, October 23\, 5 – 6 PM (RSVP appreciated) \nJoin Boston-based artist Shelly “Lola” Freund in an informal conversation as she explores her art practice in real time. While showcasing her yarn technique\, Lola hopes to engage in an open conversation about art practice\, culture\, and our identities.  \nBorn and raised in El Salvador in a Jewish household\, Lola’s art is a personal pathway\, a map to her home and cross-continental community. Utilizing brightly colored renditions of her own fingerprints and objects reminiscent of family keepsakes\, Lola’s sweeping canvases pop with copper hues\, vibrant pinks\, and bright blues that shimmer with the additions of rhinestones\, glitter\, and yarn. Whorls of string create pathways\, as she weaves between English\, Spanish\, and Hebrew\, reflected amongst the painting titles. With this amalgamation\, she attempts to build new memories and a new identity in an attempt to rebuild the feeling of home. Existing in the land of in-between\, Lola celebrates her multicultural identity while also asking us to consider what may be lost in translation?  \nMenjunje/Amalgamation: An Exploration of Language and Identity on View until November 16th in the Wedge Gallery \nThe Umbrella Arts Galleries are free and open to all.
