The Center for Contemporary Art in Bedminster presents the “Creative Women’s Showcase” exhibition, curated by Ilisa Zollenberg, November 1 through December 8. Exhibiting artists Serena Bocchino (Basking Ridge), Meeta Garg (Basking Ridge), Ivey Kampouris (Bridgewater), Grace Martoccia (Basking Ridge), Seanna Noonan (Basking Ridge), Carolina W. Rivera (Califon), Isabell Villacis (South Bound Brook), and Ilisa Zollenberg (Basking Ridge) will showcase their work in mixed media, pastels, acrylic, photography, and more.

Zollenberg said in her curatorial statement, “Art is a powerful communicator. It connects us to each other. It introduces us to strangers. It is a storyteller of the soul. It entices the audience to look further into a message that needs to be told. I am so grateful to live the life of an artist. Throughout my career as an artist, business owner and entrepreneur, I am inspired by the talented women I have met. It has always been a dream of mine to create a place where women can come together to recognize, support, and empower each other’s talents. Curating this show provided me a voice to do that.”

An opening reception is on Friday, November 1 from 5:30 to 9 p.m. with a celebration of women artists and business owners, a vendor sale, and meet and greet.

The Center for Contemporary Art is located at 2020 Burnt Mills Road in Bedminster. For more information, call (908) 234-2345 or visit ccabedminster.org.
