 In Pegasus Gallery and The Niche:

September 15 - October 27, 2025

Opening Reception on Wednesday September 17, 5:00-7:00pm at Pegasus Gallery.

Simon O’Reilly’s work explores the intersections of image-making, narrative form, and emerging technology. Drawing from disciplines such as sculpture, visual effects, cinema, and digital animation, he creates audiovisual experiences that question perception, materiality, and the emotional weight of images. Whether projecting a film in a darkened room, composing digitally altered video, or experimenting with motion capture and game engines, O’Reilly is interested in how screens mediate memory, identity, and presence.

This exhibition brings together a series of self-directed works that explore speculative image-making, ritual, and the boundaries of narrative structure. At its center is Elsewhere, a silent black-and-white short film that follows a solitary oyster harvester encountering a creature made of shells. The work is contemplative and immersive, and this installation is designed to mirror the film’s pacing—slowed, reflective, and intimate. The creature’s costume, which will be exhibited separately, serves as a sculptural anchor that expands the film’s mythology beyond the screen.

Surrounding Elsewhere are smaller works: early short films, digital experiments, motion-captured fragments, and animated 3D prints. These pieces lean into genre—science fiction, speculative fiction, surrealism—but are modest in tone. They were created during moments of curiosity, when experimenting with new tools or aesthetics. Many contain humor, abstraction, or visual ambiguity, and most were made independently, outside the larger collaborative film environment O’Reilly often works in.

Simon O’Reilly’s is a Middletown based media artist, filmmaker and cinematographer. He is an adjunct instructor in CT State Middlesex’s New Media Production program and teaching Film Production this fall semester. O’Reilly holds degrees from Concordia University (Montréal, Canada) and from Middlesex Community College (Middletown, CT).

Explore the shapes and patterns of the natural world through the art of papercutting.

Students will learn to design and cut original compositions using freehand techniques with precision tools and fine scissors. Beginning with simple forms and gradually advancing in complexity, all work is created at a manageable 5 x 7″ scale. Finished papercuts are assembled into a hand-crafted softcover book featuring framed pockets to hold and display the artwork. A reusable page template allows for flexible expansion. The final result will be a beautifully bound collection of intricate, personal designs.

We will also take a field trip to a local professional paper cutter’s studio and gallery for a demonstration.

This is a course for both beginners and those with some experience. Many of the basic skills of bookbinding will be taught including measuring, cutting, folding, and gluing.

Enrollment in this class includes one 3 hour monitored practice session a week.

Tuition for this class includes a fee of $8 for basic materials provided by CAW.

This class will take place in a studio accessed by a flight of stairs. For any accommodations please send a confidential email to registrar@creativeartsworkshop.org

 In Pegasus Gallery and The Niche:

September 15 - October 27, 2025

Opening Reception on Wednesday September 17, 5:00-7:00pm at Pegasus Gallery.

Simon O’Reilly’s work explores the intersections of image-making, narrative form, and emerging technology. Drawing from disciplines such as sculpture, visual effects, cinema, and digital animation, he creates audiovisual experiences that question perception, materiality, and the emotional weight of images. Whether projecting a film in a darkened room, composing digitally altered video, or experimenting with motion capture and game engines, O’Reilly is interested in how screens mediate memory, identity, and presence.

This exhibition brings together a series of self-directed works that explore speculative image-making, ritual, and the boundaries of narrative structure. At its center is Elsewhere, a silent black-and-white short film that follows a solitary oyster harvester encountering a creature made of shells. The work is contemplative and immersive, and this installation is designed to mirror the film’s pacing—slowed, reflective, and intimate. The creature’s costume, which will be exhibited separately, serves as a sculptural anchor that expands the film’s mythology beyond the screen.

Surrounding Elsewhere are smaller works: early short films, digital experiments, motion-captured fragments, and animated 3D prints. These pieces lean into genre—science fiction, speculative fiction, surrealism—but are modest in tone. They were created during moments of curiosity, when experimenting with new tools or aesthetics. Many contain humor, abstraction, or visual ambiguity, and most were made independently, outside the larger collaborative film environment O’Reilly often works in.

Simon O’Reilly’s is a Middletown based media artist, filmmaker and cinematographer. He is an adjunct instructor in CT State Middlesex’s New Media Production program and teaching Film Production this fall semester. O’Reilly holds degrees from Concordia University (Montréal, Canada) and from Middlesex Community College (Middletown, CT).

See this exhibition’s companion website at: Elsewhere & Other Fragments

Celestial Garden (Yale), a new exhibition by renowned visual artist and Yale alum  Leo Villareal ’90 , is now on view in The Dome.

This never-before-exhibited artwork features an original soundscape and employs a suite of ten projectors that map the entire dome’s intrados. Villareal, whose work explores the physicality of light in both the spatial and temporal dimensions, uses custom software to orchestrate the perpetually evolving, abstract compositions, inspired by nature’s intricate, ever-changing patterns. Plush carpets and seating allow a contemplative pause for viewers to be immersed in a dynamic and continuously unfolding interplay of light and sound.

Free and open to the public Tuesdays through Saturdays from 12-6pm with extended hours on Thursdays until 8pm.

Regina Thomas’ collage and mixed media art is a mélange of visual stimuli, colors, and shapes involving different genres from the representational to the abstract. These multi-layered works portray her view of the world, never realistic, injecting her own narratives, metaphors, and icons. Regina works instinctually, and her desire is to stimulate and intrigue the viewer, make a connection, bringing their own experiences to the work.

Regina has lived and traveled throughout Asia and Europe. While in London, she attended Richmond University concentrating on the Art Disciplines as well as Studio classes. Upon her return to the states she continued refining her art through classes and workshops at RISD (Rhode Island School of Design), The New Art Center in Newton – MA, South Shore Art Center – MA, West Hartford Art League, Creative Arts Workshop/New Haven, CT, Yale University and The British Art Museum.

Regina has been included in many juried exhibitions in New England. Thomas shows in private galleries and has private collectors across the U.S., Europe, South America and Asia. Her most recent shows have been at The John Slade Ely House in New Haven, and The Spectrum Gallery in Centerbrook where she also holds classes in collage and mixed media art.

Dates: Tuesdays: Sept. 16, 23; 30; October 7, 15

In this multi-week workshop, participants will learn to forge their own custom chef’s knife and paring knife from high-carbon or stainless steel. Over the course of four sessions, you’ll explore the chemistry and craftsmanship behind blade creation—from raw steel to finished, functional kitchen tools. You’ll also gain hands-on experience using the tools of both the metal and wood shops to shape, assemble, and finish your knives for long-term performance.

This is a four-part class held weekly on Tuesdays beginning September 2.

What to Expect

Each week builds on the last as you work through the full knife-making process:

  • Week 2 – Beveling & Rough Shaping
  • Begin forming the cutting edge and refining the geometry of your blades using belt grinders and other metalworking tools.
  • Week 3 – Handle Shaping & Assembly
  • Design and create custom handles using woodworking tools, then attach them to your blades for a complete, ergonomic fit.
  • Week 4 – Finishing & Edge Work
  • Refine your blades, sharpen them, and learn how to care for your finished knives to maintain sharpness and longevity.

This is a hands-on, skill-building workshop. Expect to work with kilns, grinders, sanders, and saws in a supportive and guided environment.

Skills You’ll Acquire

• Understanding of blade metallurgy and heat treatment

• Use of kilns, grinders, buffing wheels, drill presses, and woodworking tools

• Knife profiling, beveling, and edge forming

• Handle shaping and knife assembly

• Knife care and long-term maintenance

What’s Provided

• High-carbon or stainless steel blanks

• Handle materials (wood, adhesives, and hardware)

• Access to metal and woodshop tools and equipment

• Instruction and support across all four sessions

Who Should Attend

Ideal for beginners and intermediate makers interested in metalwork, bladesmithing, or custom kitchen tools. Whether you’re a home cook, hands-on learner, or DIY enthusiast, this class will guide you through the rewarding process of knife making—start to finish.

Prerequisites/Safety Information

No prior knife-making experience required. All necessary tools, materials, and safety instruction will be provided in class.

This is a four-part class held on consecutive Tuesdays: September 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd.

 Elm City the Heartbeat of Connecticut is a eighty five minute documentary told through the voices of those who lived it. It is a story of migration and memory, of homes and communities lost, of battles fought in classrooms and on city blocks — and of the resilience that still defines New Haven today.

They grew up in a three-family house on Cedar Street — a home filled with love, laughter, and neighborhood friends. It was a place where doors were never locked, where neighbors felt like family, and everyone knew they belonged. Then the city came with eminent domain, tearing it down and leaving only a park in its place.

The story of New Haven is written in families like theirs. Parents who migrated from North Carolina in 1953, arriving by train with four children and nothing but determination. A father who worked at the hospital, sat in classrooms beside his kids, and taught them to value both education and service. A family where nearly every child followed him — into the military or into schools that opened new doors.

Their roots reached even deeper: to Monk Crossroads in North Carolina, where ancestors once enslaved claimed freedom, land, and dignity. To a cousin who became a jazz legend. To generations who turned hardship into legacy.

In The Hill, parents sat in classrooms beside their children to demand a real education. Neighbors organized to repair broken schools, fought displacement, and refused to let their blocks and curbs be taken without a voice. Community meant persistence, even as redevelopment carved apart entire neighborhoods.

Still, everyday life thrived. Children caught butterflies in jars, played double dutch under the streetlights, and gathered at community centers that anchored the projects. Long Wharf bustled with ships and trade, connecting New Haven to the world. It was also where a bold dream took shape: the nation’s first Black college, imagined in 1831, that could have changed history, but was struck down before it could open.

THE PACK A.D.

Destruction and melody, acid wit and bruising vocals—this is the Pack A.D. Singer/guitarist Becky Black and drummer Maya Miller have made a sound so gigantic, so fierce and raw and empowering, that it’s easy to forget there are just two people behind this brilliant, carefully constructed havoc. Shredding and pounding their way through every song, the Pack A.D. swallows you whole inside their fearless Franken-blend of heavy psych-pop/garage-rock. Their lyrics are wild nests, human and complex: darkly funny disclosures about depression; indictments of digital excess; grief-stricken fire bombs; sly crusades against stupidity. The Pack A.D. is also one of Canada’s “must-see” bands. Be it a massive stadium or the slightly seedy bar where everybody’s shoes stick to the carpet, the Pack A.D. have owned every spotlight and stolen every show they’ve ever played. Becky and Maya are relentless and riveting, playing with the kind of fuck-off freedom that makes everybody in the room vicarious rock stars, even if it’s just for the night.

EVIL DEAD IN CONCERT

Evil Dead In Concert, a live-to-film experience that thrills and chills, resurrects Sam Raimi’s beloved cult classic in a way audiences have never seen before -- in this lifetime.

The legendary film will be screened in a newly restored format and brought to life on stage while a live ensemble performs the entire revamped original musical score from composer Joe LoDuca.

LoDuca began his film career by composing this iconic score for director Sam Raimi, and went on to win multiple Emmys for his scoring work. Most recently, Joe released a reimagining and re-recording of the original Evil Dead score called “Evil Dead: A Nightmare Reimagined,” where he re-recorded and expanded on the original musical themes of the movie.

Evil Dead follows five college students on vacation in an isolated cabin in the woods, where they unwittingly release absolute evil into the world and have to fight to survive. This indie classic is known as one of the most significant cult horror films of all time, and has generated a massive following worldwide since its release.

A transformative musical that takes a stand against bullying and uplifts with messages of empathy, kindness, and connection. Through a compelling blend of emotional ballads and uplifting anthems, this modern musical speaks directly to young people, especially middle schoolers, while resonating deeply with adults. Our performances are designed to move audiences and inspire them to take action in the real world.

 

To date, thousands of students, educators, and legislators from across Connecticut have attended grant-funded daytime performances. The show has drawn the attention of state leaders, including members of the Connecticut State Legislature and the State Department of Education. In a powerful show of support, U.S. Secretary of Education Dr. Miguel Cardona contributed a pre-recorded message to open the performance.

 

NOTE: This show explores difficult themes that may evoke strong emotions. Some content may be intense for younger audiences.

 In Pegasus Gallery and The Niche:

September 15 - October 27, 2025

Opening Reception on Wednesday September 17, 5:00-7:00pm at Pegasus Gallery.

Simon O’Reilly’s work explores the intersections of image-making, narrative form, and emerging technology. Drawing from disciplines such as sculpture, visual effects, cinema, and digital animation, he creates audiovisual experiences that question perception, materiality, and the emotional weight of images. Whether projecting a film in a darkened room, composing digitally altered video, or experimenting with motion capture and game engines, O’Reilly is interested in how screens mediate memory, identity, and presence.

This exhibition brings together a series of self-directed works that explore speculative image-making, ritual, and the boundaries of narrative structure. At its center is Elsewhere, a silent black-and-white short film that follows a solitary oyster harvester encountering a creature made of shells. The work is contemplative and immersive, and this installation is designed to mirror the film’s pacing—slowed, reflective, and intimate. The creature’s costume, which will be exhibited separately, serves as a sculptural anchor that expands the film’s mythology beyond the screen.

Surrounding Elsewhere are smaller works: early short films, digital experiments, motion-captured fragments, and animated 3D prints. These pieces lean into genre—science fiction, speculative fiction, surrealism—but are modest in tone. They were created during moments of curiosity, when experimenting with new tools or aesthetics. Many contain humor, abstraction, or visual ambiguity, and most were made independently, outside the larger collaborative film environment O’Reilly often works in.

Simon O’Reilly’s is a Middletown based media artist, filmmaker and cinematographer. He is an adjunct instructor in CT State Middlesex’s New Media Production program and teaching Film Production this fall semester. O’Reilly holds degrees from Concordia University (Montréal, Canada) and from Middlesex Community College (Middletown, CT).

See this exhibition’s companion website at: Elsewhere & Other Fragments

Celestial Garden (Yale), a new exhibition by renowned visual artist and Yale alum  Leo Villareal ’90 , is now on view in The Dome.

This never-before-exhibited artwork features an original soundscape and employs a suite of ten projectors that map the entire dome’s intrados. Villareal, whose work explores the physicality of light in both the spatial and temporal dimensions, uses custom software to orchestrate the perpetually evolving, abstract compositions, inspired by nature’s intricate, ever-changing patterns. Plush carpets and seating allow a contemplative pause for viewers to be immersed in a dynamic and continuously unfolding interplay of light and sound.

Free and open to the public Tuesdays through Saturdays from 12-6pm with extended hours on Thursdays until 8pm.

In this 5-week class start by examining the still life’s of Monet, Van Gogh, Matisse and Moroni through visuals and discussion. Then studying visuals of contemporary approaches to the Still Life.

Learn how to make gel prints with acrylic paint on paper for your backgrounds including cutting and tearing of designed papers for your still life.

Focus on how to approach vessels in the still life collage through sketching, tracing and cutting out patterns. Finally, learn how to overlay the still life components over your finished background including placement and composition and the application of paint, highlighted areas and shading. Complete the still life discussing with the class your process, composition and materials used.

Material list available upon registration.

Regina Thomas’ collage and mixed media art is a mélange of visual stimuli, colors, and shapes involving different genres from the representational to the abstract. These multi-layered works portray her view of the world, never realistic, injecting her own narratives, metaphors, and icons. Regina works instinctually, and her desire is to stimulate and intrigue the viewer, make a connection, bringing their own experiences to the work.

Regina has lived and traveled throughout Asia and Europe. While in London, she attended Richmond University concentrating on the Art Disciplines as well as Studio classes. Upon her return to the states she continued refining her art through classes and workshops at RISD (Rhode Island School of Design), The New Art Center in Newton – MA, South Shore Art Center – MA, West Hartford Art League, Creative Arts Workshop/New Haven, CT, Yale University and The British Art Museum.

Regina has been included in many juried exhibitions in New England. Thomas shows in private galleries and has private collectors across the U.S., Europe, South America and Asia. Her most recent shows have been at The John Slade Ely House in New Haven, and The Spectrum Gallery in Centerbrook where she also holds classes in collage and mixed media art.

Renowned visual artist and Yale alum Leo Villareal ’90 will present Celestial Garden (Yale), a new exhibition in The Dome at Yale Schwarzman Center. This never-before-exhibited artwork features an original soundscape and employs a suite of ten projectors that map the entire dome’s intrados. Villareal, whose work explores the physicality of light in both the spatial and temporal dimensions, uses custom software to orchestrate the perpetually evolving, abstract compositions, inspired by nature’s intricate, ever-changing patterns. Plush carpets and seating allow a contemplative pause for viewers to be immersed in a dynamic and continuously unfolding interplay of light and sound.

Free and open to the public Tuesdays through Saturdays from 12-6pm with extended hours on Thursdays until 8pm.

In these four drawing sessions children, ages 7-11, learn the Seven Lines of Design to get comfortable observing lines and patterns in their environments and then designing with them.  One session will take their newfound line/pattern experiences into the world of Zentangle learning 12-15 basic “tangles” or unique patterns which they will draw on tiles. Copies of the book: Zentangle Basics is provided for reference. In the third session, children engage in a still life project. They learn to draw several objects using contour lines or the simple outline of an object. These drawings are cut-out and then arranged on paper to compose a still life. This class is inspired by the collages of Picasso, the paper-cuts of Matisse and the still life paintings of Cezanne. The final session prepares children for the October painting classes. They study Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh discussing his brushstrokes, lines and movement. They will use their previous study of lines and patterns for the crescent moon, stars, ghosts and wind adding a bonfire and pumpkins to celebrate the season.  All materials included. See photos for samples of projects described.

Sharon Lee Mullen-Reynolds knew in High School that she was to be an Art teacher. That is exactly what she did; for 36 years she taught Visual Art in the city of New Haven. Her career hi-light was teaching 22 years at the Betsy Ross Arts Magnet Middle School. During her tenure there she was a published Fellow at Yale N.H.Teachers Institute for 2 years, the Department Chairperson for 8 years and creator of As Far As The Eye Can See a school-wide art exhibit.

Since her retirement in 2016, she has been attending numerous art exhibits and installations locally and in NYC, specifically Frida Kahlo’s exhibit at the Brooklyn Art Museum which led her to create Frida- inspired floral headpieces. In 2017 she started The Kindness Rock art installation at the Branford Festival.

Sharon is an artist who believes that art can heal your soul. In 2022 she sold her headpieces at the Ukrainian Roman Catholic church for the benefit of Ukraine’s War effort and donated 5 Ukrainian Strong “Petals for Peace” paintings to raise additional funds. These paintings were showcased on Channel 8 news.

In addition to her headpieces, Sharon works in mixed-media, crafts, collage, and watercolor landscape en plein air. Sharon’s artwork has been exhibited at City-Wide Open Studios, The ARTS Council, Calligraphers Guild, and is currently exhibited at Spectrum Gallery in Centerbrook, Connecticut.

 In Pegasus Gallery and The Niche:

September 15 - October 27, 2025

Opening Reception on Wednesday September 17, 5:00-7:00pm at Pegasus Gallery.

Simon O’Reilly’s work explores the intersections of image-making, narrative form, and emerging technology. Drawing from disciplines such as sculpture, visual effects, cinema, and digital animation, he creates audiovisual experiences that question perception, materiality, and the emotional weight of images. Whether projecting a film in a darkened room, composing digitally altered video, or experimenting with motion capture and game engines, O’Reilly is interested in how screens mediate memory, identity, and presence.

This exhibition brings together a series of self-directed works that explore speculative image-making, ritual, and the boundaries of narrative structure. At its center is Elsewhere, a silent black-and-white short film that follows a solitary oyster harvester encountering a creature made of shells. The work is contemplative and immersive, and this installation is designed to mirror the film’s pacing—slowed, reflective, and intimate. The creature’s costume, which will be exhibited separately, serves as a sculptural anchor that expands the film’s mythology beyond the screen.

Surrounding Elsewhere are smaller works: early short films, digital experiments, motion-captured fragments, and animated 3D prints. These pieces lean into genre—science fiction, speculative fiction, surrealism—but are modest in tone. They were created during moments of curiosity, when experimenting with new tools or aesthetics. Many contain humor, abstraction, or visual ambiguity, and most were made independently, outside the larger collaborative film environment O’Reilly often works in.

Simon O’Reilly’s is a Middletown based media artist, filmmaker and cinematographer. He is an adjunct instructor in CT State Middlesex’s New Media Production program and teaching Film Production this fall semester. O’Reilly holds degrees from Concordia University (Montréal, Canada) and from Middlesex Community College (Middletown, CT).

See this exhibition’s companion website at: Elsewhere & Other Fragments

Celestial Garden (Yale), a new exhibition by renowned visual artist and Yale alum  Leo Villareal ’90 , is now on view in The Dome.

This never-before-exhibited artwork features an original soundscape and employs a suite of ten projectors that map the entire dome’s intrados. Villareal, whose work explores the physicality of light in both the spatial and temporal dimensions, uses custom software to orchestrate the perpetually evolving, abstract compositions, inspired by nature’s intricate, ever-changing patterns. Plush carpets and seating allow a contemplative pause for viewers to be immersed in a dynamic and continuously unfolding interplay of light and sound.

Free and open to the public Tuesdays through Saturdays from 12-6pm with extended hours on Thursdays until 8pm. 

Special thanks to Kim Heirston Art Advisory, New York, NY.

Woven into Indonesia’s cultural fabric, textiles have historically served not only as expressions of artistry and tradition but also as drivers of trade and economic activity. In this lecture, Barbara Watson Andaya, Emeritus Professor of Asian Studies, University of Hawai‘i, reaches back into the past, exploring how cloth and material objects reflect shifts in aesthetic preferences, ritual practices, and the assimilation of outside influences. In the process, Andaya examines the gendered dimensions of cloth production as it transitioned from a cottage industry to a central commodity in the broader economy. Although the women involved—whether in transforming bark into cloth, infusing their weaving with intricate symbolism, or painting the vibrant designs that made “batik” a household name—are often overlooked in Indonesian history, they bequeathed a legacy that is still thriving. 

Taking as departure points several pieces in the Gallery’s exhibition Nusantara: Six Centuries of Indonesian Textiles, the lecture traverses the Indonesian archipelago, tracing historical developments and highlighting the extraordinary diversity and cultural dynamics embedded in textiles. From the headdresses of headhunters to the cosmological motifs adorning Sumatra’s ship cloths and the mythical creatures on a batik waist wrapper from Java, this journey through time reveals both unique creativity and the profound connections between textiles and the identities of so many Indonesian communities. 

Generously sponsored by the Martin A. Ryerson Lectureship Fund. Offered in conjunction with the exhibition Nusantara.
