Liz Alpert Fay:
Ordinary/ Extraordinary Women

Please join us for the opening reception and gallery talk to celebrate Liz Alpert Fay’s

breathtaking exhibition of  sixteen larger-than-life, hand hooked portraits.

Sunday,  June 29 / 2pm-4pm

Honoring the extraordinary achievements of women in the ordinary context of their lives.

This series of large-scale, multidimensional portraits honors sixteen extraordinary yet often overlooked women, celebrating their individuality and the artist’s evolution. We are honored to be the first stop on this traveling exhibition.

“In 2004 I created a portrait to honor a very special woman. Her name was Ruth Spring and she was 92 years old.
Ruth was a naturalist, landscape painter, organic gardener and an inspiration to all who knew her. Inspired by my experience creating this portrait, I have chosen fifteen other women who have been part of my life, that I wish to honor. The portraits are all larger than life, as that is how I see these women. I’ve decided not to show most of these portraits in their entirety until the series goes on exhibit, although a couple have previously been shown. “
