Art- a healing experience

Jennifer’s work, along with three other international artists, will be featured in a special art exhibit and lecture series sponsored by UCLA and the Salamander Fund, and hosted at Gallery Saint Germain in West Hollywood, CA. The theme of the event is Healing and Transformation through Art.

Multi-media events will take place at the gallery during the first three weeks of December. There will be a special VIP night and opening reception on Saturday, December 3rd, 2005. The keynote speaker for the event will be Dr. Debra Linesch, Chair of the Loyola Marymount University Graduate Department of Marital and Family Therapy, that offers specialized training in clinical Art Therapy.

The purpose of Healing and Transformation through Art is to explore a variety of ways in which creative arts can unleash personal insight and enhance health. The arts can be healing to artists themselves, or to those who experience their work. Partial proceeds (30%) of the sale of artwork during the month will be donated to the Salamander Fund to continue its support of ongoing UCLA programs in creative arts and healing.

The Gallery Saint Germain brings the work of contemporary artists from Europe and the United States to southern California. The gallery is located at 302 N. Robertson Blvd. in West Hollywood and is open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. For this event, the gallery will be also be open from 2:00 - 6:00 p.m. on Sundays (www.gallerysaintgermain.com).
