“Land, Light, Spirit” Exhibit at Marie L. Matthews Gallery

“POINT BREEZE APPLE ORCHARD”: This work by Nancy Long is featured in “Land, Light, Spirit,” on view December 4 through March 10 at the Marie L. Matthews Gallery at D&R Greenway Land Trust’s Johnson Education Center. A holiday art reception is on December 4 from 2 to 4 p.m.

D&R Greenway Land Trust’s exhibition “Land, Light, Spirit” features artwork that illuminates the connection between person and place, a bond with landscape that is both individual and spiritual: It might be a quality of light, a time of day or season — reasons extend through time, borne out through experience.

Featuring artists Paul Rickert, Eve Ingalls, Suzanne Dinger, Gail Bracegirdle, Nancy Long, and Ernest Schwiebert, the exhibit is on view Sunday, December 4 through March 10 in the Marie L. Matthews Gallery at D&R Greenway’s Johnson Education Center, 1 Preservation Place. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays.

The public is invited to a holiday art reception on December 4 from 2 to 4 p.m. where guests can meet the artists. At 4 p.m., author Arthur Cola will share some interesting facts he uncovered while researching and writing his new novel, Murder at Point Breeze. Following his talk, poets Lois Marie Harrod, Maxine Susman, Dave Worrell, and other surprise guests will present a reading portraying the drama of the book with settings in Bordentown and Princeton.

Books are available for purchase, and the author will be on hand to sign books throughout the reception.

Artwork on view includes watercolor, oil and acrylic paintings, sculpture, and embossed archival giclee prints.
