SUMMARY:July Artist: Carol O'Toole "Panoply" Reception
DESCRIPTION:Carol O’Toole “Panoply”\nOn view during library hours. \nReception\, Sunday\, June 28 from 3:00 – 5:00 pm \n“Panoply\,” an exhibition of paintings by Carol O’Toole\, whose vibrant works reflect a lifetime of creativity\, travel\, and artistic exploration. The exhibition runs June 28 through July 30. \nO’Toole began her creative journey in ballet and modern dance — disciplines whose sense of movement and flow continue to influence her visual art. Working in acrylics and pastels since age 20\, she creates landscapes\, floral studies\, wildlife scenes\, and village settings inspired by her travels. \nThe collection captures the sparkling colors of Florida\, the tropical beauty of St. Croix\, and the vivid streetscapes of Mexico\, where she spent several winters immersed in local culture. Through her work\, viewers are invited to experience the beauty and energy of these places. \n“This collection invites viewers to share the journeys\, experiences\, and inspirations that have shaped my art\,” says O’Toole. \nO’Toole’s paintings have been exhibited in libraries\, galleries\, and outdoor venues throughout Connecticut and St. Croix. She and her husband\, Larry\, have called Washington Depot\, Connecticut\, home while also living in Florida\, Maryland’s Eastern Shore\, Washington\, D.C.\, and aboard a sailboat in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Together they raised three daughters and have nine grandchildren. \nO’Toole holds degrees in art education and holistic health and is licensed in acupuncture and massage therapy. \nCarol O’Toole at cotoolelac2@gmail.com

SUMMARY:September Artist: Kate Themel
DESCRIPTION:Kate Themel\nSeptember 1 – 30\, 2026 \nBurnham Library is pleased to present an exhibition of work by award-winning Connecticut fiber artist Kate Themel from September 1 through September 30\, 2026. The exhibition will showcase Themel’s distinctive quilted compositions\, which combine the traditions of textile art with the principles and techniques of fine art. \nThemel\, who lives in Cheshire\, Connecticut\, earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art in 1992 and began working with fabric as an artistic medium in 1996. Drawing on her formal art training\, she has developed a painterly style using fabric\, thread\, color\, shape\, and texture to create expressive fiber compositions. \nHer work has been exhibited in galleries and museums from Boston to Botswana and has been selected for prestigious international exhibitions\, including Art Quilt Elements\, the Kagoshima Quilt Show in Japan\, and Quilt National. Her work has received both the People’s Choice Award and the Young Emerging Artist Award at Quilt National. \n“I rely on my formal training when I’m evaluating a composition and deciding if it works or not\,” Themel explains. “The elements of art are the same whether you use ink\, paint\, or fabric as the medium.” \nFor Themel\, fabric provides an expansive creative palette. She uses textiles to explore value\, color\, and shape\, while machine stitching introduces lines and texture. The layered and tactile nature of fiber art also allows her to explore its sculptural qualities. \nIn addition to her gallery and museum work\, Themel has created custom fiber art for individuals\, hospitals\, and corporate clients. \nThe exhibition will be on display at Burnham Library throughout September. Visitors are invited to stop in during regular library hours to experience Themel’s unique approach to contemporary fiber art.
