​
This exhibit highlights the immense number of parks in our city and how the preservation of these greenspaces not only benefit the residents but they are a very vital part to our pollinationg friends, bees, butterflies, moths, and even bats. Come to the exhibit and see the parks - grab a seed pack and spread life this spring.

JACKSONVILLE MAIN LIBRARY 1ST FLOOR GALLERY
303 NORTH LAURA STREEET, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32202
EXHIBITION DATES: DEC 9,2024 - JAN 09, 2025
RECEPTION: JAN 4, 2025 2-4 PM

​JUROR: Mary Hurley

Mary Hurley's oil paintings capture the essence of quiet classic settings that evoke a sense of elegance and refinement. Her work ranges from contemporary realism to modern impressionism. Inspiration comes from the scent of a freshly cut orange, the texture of seashells brought home from the beach, and echoes of classic antique pottery resting on a forgotten shelf. 
​
She is influenced by whispers of a simpler time, when life was characterized by hard work and modest pleasures. She paints echoes of her grandmother’s kitchen, her father’s rugged fishing boats, and her mother’s Victoriana collections, all of which offer a glimpse into a serene, reflective past, celebrating the quiet beauty of life’s small, often unnoticed moments.
