We are excited to welcome Evanston’s Kristen Neveu as the next to be featured in our ongoing exhibition series Local Art @ EPL. A life-long artist whose work has shown at Woman Made Gallery, the Beverly Hills Art Fair, Evanston Made, and in the personal collection of Community actor Joel McHale, Neveu threads Americana and nostalgia into mixed media collages and paintings to create “patterned, patchwork storybooks that embody a yearning for the past, with connections to possibilities for the future.” You can catch her show through the end of April on the 2nd floor of EPL’s Main Library and meet her at a closing reception on Thursday, April 27 from 6-8 pm. You can also find more of Neveu’s work by visiting her website, and make sure to check out her recent interview on The Lisa D Show where she talks about making room in life for creativity and the need to share art with everyone.
