Elsie Goldstein, Acrylics
The exhibit, “Life in Colors” by acrylic artist Elsie Goldstein, explores childlike faith in a series of figure paintings depicting children in everyday life and landscape paintings of New England that feed our souls with familiar settings.
Preferring to paint in acrylics, Ms. Goldsteins’ work reveals a colorful preference for realism that leaves a lasting impression on its audience.

Gan Barber, Photography
Gallery Reception
Saturday, September 6th, 11am-1pm
The vibrant color photography of Lakeville photographer Gan Barber will be on display for two months this fall in the Great Ponds Gallery. A reception with the artist will be held on September 6th and is open to all. Light refreshments will be served.
Mr. Barber's works strive to showcase the “sublime in the ordinary”. This collection is titled “A Language of Light”.
These landscape photographs are meticulously crafted and personally printed on luxurious 100% cotton rag paper using archival pigment inks. This process allows Mr. Barber to control the nuances of color gradation, from gentle pastels to rich, dynamic palettes, and to explore the full range of tones when working in black and white.
This exhibit is free and open to the public to view during regular Lakeville Public Library hours. Please check our events calendar if you would like to view the exhibit when the gallery isn't reserved for another activity. The Library is closed on Friday and Sunday.
