The Island Gallery presents “Studies in Light and Space” by Bainbridge artist Jen Till from May 1 through June 28 at the downtown Winslow gallery.

An opening reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on First Friday, May 1.

Ranger and the Re-Arrangers, Bainbridge’s own Gypsy jazz band, will provide the music.

Till spent her childhood years in a seaside village, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts, along the New England coast. Inspired by her many creative family members, she was fortunate to be entirely embraced in her budding love of art throughout childhood. Till went on to the Rhode Island School of Design where she studied painting and textiles. After graduating, she moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico where she began to explore painting the vast landscape and light of the Southwest.

She now lives, paints, teaches and works as a freelance textile designer on Bainbridge Island.

The Island Gallery is located at 400 Winslow Way E., Suite 120.
