Saturday, May 31, 2025 | 10AM – 3PM | Heafey Gallery
Central Stories Museum and Art Gallery is delighted to invite you to a special opportunity to meet local artist Jen Olson, whose captivating exhibition “Between Sittings” is currently on display in the Heafey Gallery.
Join us for this informal gathering where Jen will be present throughout the day to discuss her work, creative process, and the fascinating inspiration behind her exploration of chairs as silent witnesses to our human experience.
“Between Sittings” examines our rituals of rest and movement from the perspective of the chair—those constant companions that cradle our conversations, hold our exhaustion, and mark the rhythms of our lives. Through her distinctive figurative painting style, Jen captures the awkward exchanges, sublime moments, uncomfortable feelings, and fragile connections that make us gloriously human.
Whether you’ve already visited the exhibition and have questions, or this will be your first encounter with Jen’s work, this is a wonderful chance to gain deeper insight into her artistic vision and techniques.
