NOYES ARTS GARAGE, ATLANTIC CITY:

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - The Noyes Arts Garage of Stockton University is proud to introduce new exhibitions and events for the summer. Visit the galleries to see: Transform: Works by Ellen Hanauer; M. Pascucci: Sculptures, and the NJ Mega Meet Photography Exhibition.

Transform: Works by Ellen Hanauer,a solo exhibition is on view now through June 25. Artist Ellen Hanauer presents an emotional recollection of her own transformation, which has taken her from the abyss to a place where potential is limitless. With fiber as the chosen medium, it brings an unthreatening quality to this provocative and sometimes uncomfortable subject. Emerging from the darkness has helped Hanauer to see possibilities that can only be discovered through the path of deconstruction and reconstruction. (Photo 1)

2. Pascucci: Sculptures is a solo exhibition on view now through July 2. Michael Pascucci works in a figurative and abstract styles that emphasize visual metaphors relating to the human condition. He states that his sculptures are essentially romantic as they connect to core feelings and enhance an awareness of self. Inspired by wonder for the structure of forms in nature, he seeks to inspire feelings of universal connectedness with his work. (Photo 2)

NJ Mega Meet: the Exhibition, running through May 31, is an exhibition curated by Mo Colon, who led the Mega Meet tour on May 12. On the tour, photographers joined together to learn about the rich cultural history of Ducktown and the Atlantic City Arts District, while uncovering some of the best places to further their craft. The exhibition highlights the work of photographers from all over New Jersey. (Photo 3)
