An exhibition of artworks by Jacob Ginga & Gregg Harper @ Groundworks, New Bedford, MA Through June 29th... Opening Reception Thursday, June 9th ![]() At what point does an object become an artifact? Must it first collect its fair share of stories? There is history in objects and the way in which we view them. In this exhibition, artists Jake Ginga & Gregg Harper, explore the potential for objects and artifacts to serve as inspiration and materials for artworks. Each work aims to address the space between the viewer and their relationship with the objects with careful attention to design and composition. In the end it’s less about what stories the objects tell and more about the stories you give to them. Gray Matter:

Update: Ironstone Farm's Challenge Unlimited has set May 18, 2014 as the date for the Equine Therapy Program for Cancer Survivors in Naomi's memory. 12 people who are battling cancer will have the same opportunity that others' generosity provided to Naomi in August, 2011. Thanks to all who contributed! Many turned out to enjoy a retrospective of Naomi's art and life at her former studio in North Harwich, MA. Part of the celebration involved raising funds for the support of Challenge Unlimited's Equine Therapy Program for Cancer Survivors, a program that helped Naomi during her struggle with cancer. On Friday, August 16th, Naomi's sister Maura and I delivered checks and cash to sponsor a full retreat for 12 cancer survivors in Naomi's name which will be scheduled for Spring, 2014. More funds have come in for a grand total of $4800.00...Naomi would be overwhelmed by this generosity in her memory...thanks so much to everyone...Gregg ![]() Wild By Nature @ Woodruff Art Center, Mashpee Commons, June 26th - September 2, 2013
