OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Jennifer MacIsaac Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I have always wanted to learn how to make jewelry, metalsmithing to be exact. During quarantine I began to explore YouTube videos on the subject. I have been having a blast learning, and there is still so much I want to discover about this medium!
I have been incorporating healing stones in much of my work because I am a big believer in self care and self compassion. I feel like wearing stones that remind you of your personal intentions helps to keep them always in your thoughts, and where you place your thoughts is what you call into your life.

More Exhibits
The Dorothy Verbick Exhibit
I am a middle school art teacher and a meditation/mindfulness practitioner. Before college, I had only taken an art class in elementary school. I doodled the comics (mostly Garfield), did NOT draw all the time, and did not have an encouraging family to support my art curiosity. Somehow, I still went for it.... art school made sure to let me know how far behind in knowledge I was...especially during critique.
The Angela Howard Exhibit
During this past year with everything else, I felt paralyzed from moving forward-with my dreams. I had to sit with discomfort and allow everything to move at ITs own pace. After completing these dream boards, I took my own advice and moved ahead on a whim without attachment and my dream came true.
The Victoria Walsh Exhibit
My work is texture inspired. Shadows, light play and layers add to the depth of my fiber art and practice. This piece was made during a recent residency at The Art and History Museums in Maitland FL, right before leaving my hometown and moving to Knoxville TN.
