NOYES ARTS GARAGE, ATLANTIC CITY:

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - The Noyes Arts Garage of Stockton University is pleased to introduce new exhibitions and events for the summer season. Visit the galleries to see: “Michael Pascucci: Sculpture;” “Transform: Works by Ellen Hanauer;” “Memories in Our Hands: Casey Cuff;” and the Stockton Photography Club Exhibition. The Noyes Arts Garage is open late for a Second Friday reception on June 9 from 6 – 8 p.m. Visit the art galleries and studios, shop, enjoy live music by Andy DiMacale, light refreshments, and wine tastings courtesy of the Iron Room.

“Michael V. Pascucci: Sculpture” is a solo exhibition on view now through July 2. Pascucci’s abstract style has figurative elements that emphasize visual metaphors relating to the human condition. He states that his sculptures are essentially romantic as they connect to core feelings and are intended to enhance an awareness of self. Inspired by the wonder of the structure of forms in nature, he seeks to inspire feelings of universal connectedness. www.mvpascucci.com  (Photo 1)

“Transform: Works by Ellen Hanauer,” a solo exhibition, is on view now through June 25. Hanauer presents a recollection of her transformation which took her from the abyss to a place of   limitless potential. Her work in the medium of fiber brings an unthreatening quality to this provocative subject. Emerging from the darkness has allowed Hanauer to see the possibilities that can only be discovered through the path of deconstruction and reconstruction. www.ellenhanauer.com  (Photo 2)

“Memories in Our Hands: Casey Cuff,” on view through July 2, is an exhibition of photographs from Casey Cuff’s Stockton Board of Trustees Fellowship project. Cuff traveled through the Netherlands and France with three survivors of the Holocaust, documenting their stories and emotional responses to visiting the locations crucial to their survival. Her photographs are a testament to their strength and resilience. (Photo 3)         

The Stockton Photography Club Exhibition runs through July 2. Seven young student artists with a variety of academic backgrounds represent their photography club in this exhibition of their favorite works. The club, recently founded by Shawn Chesek, affords students the opportunity to learn and grow within the field of photography, while connecting with students with similar interests. (Photo 4)
