RUTH KJAER – My Dream of Danae and the Golden Rain
2025-03-01 - 2025-03-29 | Elusie Gallery at Big Red Frame, 43 Main Street, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
@ the Elusie Gallery / Old Town Hall
March 1 – March 29
Artist Reception: March 1, 4-7pm
The paintings in this exhibit come out of Kjaer’s concerns over a range of issues that women face today. But, as a visual artist, she doesn’t want to simply report the news. We get that from other sources. Also, Ruth Kjaer comes out of a tradition originating in the groundbreaking work of the abstract expressionist artists of the 1940s and 1950s. They realized that the application of spontaneous improvisation in the process of creating abstract art could connect us with feelings and emotions that are much harder to access through more controlled approaches to artistic creation.
“My paintings strive to create a dream-world that pulls the viewer into a world below the surface of our rational lives. In doing so, I hope that we can interrogate the world we live in today from a woman’s point-of-view.” Ruth Kjaer

2025-03-01 16:00 - 2025-03-27 17:00 | Easthampton City Arts Gallery, MA, United States
“The Show I Can’t Talk About” is an exhibition of paintings by Kahli Hernandez.
BIO: Kahli Hernandez was born in Brooklyn, NY and was raised in the 413 (Springfield, MA). Growing up, a number 2 pencil and computer paper were his main tools for creativity. He states: “I started using my God given talent to draw things that made me excited, consistently adding things I liked on any surface I could get my hands on (including mom’s kitchen walls, tables, and chairs). The digital art space became my new playground when I discovered Microsoft Paint on my dad’s Windows 98 computer. During high school and college, I widened the door to mixed media and expanded on new ways to express myself.”

“During challenging times, my life informs my artwork and my artwork informs my life.
It is an opportunity to transform and make better; to uncover and bring out the best; to
celebrate the many layers of life and to create new ways to connect.
Through ethereal paintings, introspective drawings and meditative forms — quiet joy is
the thread that ties my work together.”
Mary Ann Kelly, April 2025

Journeys of the Floating World: Highways and Travel in Edo-Era Japan
2025-04-05 16:00 - 19:00 | Moonlit Sea Prints, 116 Pleasant Street, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
Moonlit Sea Prints of Easthampton MA is thrilled to announce an extraordinary exhibition — Journeys of the Floating World: Highways and Travel in Edo-Era Japan.
Step onto the storied roads of Edo-period Japan in this immersive showcase featuring the masterful woodblock prints of Utagawa Hiroshige, Keisai Eisen, Utagawa Kunisada, and Utagawa Kuniyoshi. This exhibition explores the famed highways of Japan—the Tōkaidō Road, the Kisokaidō Road, and other celebrated travel routes—which served as vital arteries of commerce, pilgrimage, and artistic inspiration.
These roads were more than just thoroughfares; they were stages where the beauty and challenges of travel unfolded. Hiroshige’s poetic landscapes capture shifting seasons and atmospheric moods, while Eisen’s bold compositions highlight the travelers who braved these winding paths. Kunisada infuses theatricality into his depictions, weaving myth and legend into the journey, while Kuniyoshi’s dynamic storytelling fills the roads with adventure and intrigue.
From mist-covered mountain passes to bustling post towns, Journeys of the Floating World transports viewers to a time when travel was both a necessity and an art form. Through these exquisite prints, experience Edo-period Japan as it was seen by the great masters of ukiyo-e.
Join us at Moonlit Sea Prints as we traverse the roads that shaped Japan’s artistic imagination.
The exhibit runs from April 1, 2025 through April 30, 2025. The gallery is open by appointment Monday through Friday, 8:30-2:30.

Hashi Pottery – Art Walk Open House at 50 Arrow Gallery & Moonlit Sea Prints
2025-04-05 16:00 - 19:00 | 50 arrow Gallery, 116 Pleasant St., Suite 244, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
oin us for an evening of handcrafted beauty at 50 Arrow Gallery and Moonlit Sea Prints during the upcoming Easthampton Art Walk. This special open house invites you to explore an evolving collection of functional ceramic art and textiles, ranging from intimate, everyday pieces to striking sculptural forms.
Discover the quiet elegance of hand-thrown yunomi for tea, bud vases, and deeply textured mugs and bowls, alongside statement pieces like expansive serving bowls, platters, and large vases—each crafted with an intuitive sense of balance, proportion, and materiality.
Much of the work featured is made by local potters who incorporate regionally sourced materials, including wild clay, river sand, crushed granite, and corn ash—elements that root each piece in a distinct sense of place. The Japanese aesthetic informs many of the works on display, emphasizing a reverence for natural forms, asymmetry, and the quiet depth found in weathered textures, soft glazes, and the marks of fire and hand.
This open house is an opportunity to experience the intersection of utility and artistry, to handle pieces that invite daily use while carrying the imprint of the maker’s touch. Whether you’re drawn to the warmth of a well-fitted teacup or the presence of a sculptural vessel, we welcome you to join us for conversation, appreciation, and a deeper encounter with the beauty of handmade work.
