SUMMARY:The Galleries at LynnArts will host a vibrant new Pop-UP solo exhibition\, Polyvios Christoforos: From the Collection – Greek Scenes\, Caricatures & Figure Drawings
DESCRIPTION:Polyvios Christoforos Exhibit at GALA Features Over a Decade of Creative Growth\nLynn\, MA — The Galleries at LynnArts will host a vibrant new Pop-UP solo exhibition\, Polyvios Christoforos: From the Collection – Greek Scenes\, Caricatures & Figure Drawings\, from May 14 to May 18\, 2025. The show will be on view in The Galleries At LynnArts Pop Up in the Community Gallery at 25 Exchange Street in Lynn\, with an Artist’s Reception on Sunday\, May 18\, from 2:00 to 4:00 PM.\nPolyvios Christoforos is a North Shore-based artist whose work bridges whimsical imagination and classical observation. Influenced by animation legends like Preston Blair\, Ren & Stimpy\, and Disney classics\, his practice blends storytelling with fine art traditions. A turning point came in an art class at the North Shore Education Consortium\, where painting a spring landscape sparked his lifelong dedication to art.\nThis exhibit features paintings and drawings created over the past 5 to 10 years in workshops and classes around the North Shore. With an emphasis on recent work you will certainly see themes that reoccur throughout the years of his body of work. From richly painted Greek landscapes to expressive caricatures and evocative figure studies\, Of note is the book that he wrote and illustrated\, entitled “Sammy Smart Guy”. Christoforos’ work reflects his journey from self-taught animator to a dynamic studio artist.\nThe community is invited to meet the artist during the reception on Sunday\, May 18th. and explore his work during gallery hours\, 12:00–5:00 PM daily throughout the exhibition week.\nAdmission is free. For more information\, visit:\nwww.polyviospaintingsetc.com or www.galleriesatlynnarts.org\nTo schedule an interview with the artist – contact his mentor\, Annette\, at 617-909-9211.

SUMMARY:Newburyport Art offers Intro to Chip Carving w/Eric Goodson
DESCRIPTION:“Intro to Chip Carving with Eric Goodson”\, in this 3-hour\, hands-on class\, you’ll be introduced to chip carving\, a timeless craft that transcends cultures and taps into a fundamental human impulse: mark-making. You’ll learn key knife grasps from Swiss and Swedish carving traditions\, discover how to assess the wood grain direction when planning your cuts\, and explore the interplay of light and shadow as you create a variety of shapes and patterns. These elements can be combined in countless ways to form unique designs. The beauty of chip carving lies in its simplicity — all you need to get started are one or two affordable knives and a carvable surface. No prior experience is necessary\, and as long as you can open a jar of spaghetti sauce\, you’ll have more than enough hand strength to dive right in.

SUMMARY:5-Day Bare Bones Wood Carving Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Learning woodcarving is a lot like learning how to write in a language. You need to know the letters of the alphabet and what is a vowel and what is a consonant. You need to learn how to put together a word and understand the meaning of it. Then you need to learn how to form a sentence and a paragraph that carries a theme. These are absolute necessities that you need to know in order to write. The same is true in woodcarving\, there are absolute necessities you need to know in order to carve with intent and confidence. So in all truth\, I need five days of your time in order to get the complete set of fundamentals into both your hands and your head. \nHowever\, I often get asked if I have weekend courses because of time restrictions. For those of you who cannot find time for the five consecutive days\, this is what I do. If you take a two or three-day course you are taking the first two or three days of my five-day workshop which is broken up into daily learning chapters. So three days brings you to chapter three\, two days to chapter two. The weekend workshops will give you a basic understanding of the skill of wood carving which includes hand-carving technique\, sharpening\, and designing skills among other topics but the full training takes five days. You will also do the carving projects to reinforce the hand techniques that we talk about so that you gain much-needed muscle memory in your hands. \nSome students may be satisfied with the information learned\, while others may choose to find their way back for another weekend and finish the last two or three days to get all the necessary techniques and insights. When you return\, (it can be during that calendar year or the next) everyone else is at the beginning point on the start of the weekend\, but you pick up where you left off to finish your training. That’s the story in a nutshell. Call me if you are looking for more info. I am happy to answer any questions. \nAll class days run from 9 am – 5 pm. \nFor more information:\nCall: (978) 283-0231\nEmail: david@calvostudio.com\nWebsite: https://www.davidcalvo.com/woodcarving_classes.html

SUMMARY:“Mole Is Not Alone”: Spring Storytime with Children’s Authors Maya Tatsukawa and Hanna Cha
DESCRIPTION:Join the Peabody Institute Library for a special event with acclaimed children’s author and Mass Book Award-Honoree Maya Tatsukawa\, who will present Mole Is Not Alone and her brand-new book\, Otter Carries On! Maya will be joined in conversation by author-illustrator Hanna Cha. \nMole is invited to a party\, which is very worrisome. What if the party is too rowdy for Mole? What if Mole doesn’t know anyone there? What if Mole is just too shy to make friends? Mole worries through the tunnels\, around Snake’s burrow\, under the forest\, past Bear’s den\, and all the way to Rabbit’s door. But despite all those worries\, maybe Mole can find a quiet way to make friends . . . \nIn this cozy picture book about friendship\, Mole anxiously decides to journey through underground tunnels to attend a party. \nWith warm and sweet illustrations\, every page of Mole Is Not Alone is an invitation to look and look again. Readers can follow Mole’s tunnel as it connects from one page to the next\, learning along the way that everyone can make friends\, even if some parties are quieter than others. \nThis program is sponsored by the Mass Book Awards Speakers Bureau and is presented in collaboration with the Massachusetts Center for the Book. \nMaya Tatsukawa is a children’s book author\, illustrator\, and designer residing just out of Boston with her cat/studio manager. When she’s not designing\, illustrating\, or thinking about children’s books\, you can find her baking cream puffs\, eating ice cream\, or searching for the perfect scone. She is the author and illustrator of Sunday Pancakes\, which was a 2023 Mass Book Awards Honors title\, Mole Is Not Alone\, a 2024 Mass Book Awards Honoree\, The Bear in My Family\, and Otter Carries On (2025). \nHanna Cha is a Caldecott Honor award-winning illustrator and writer with several books under her belt. She is the creator of her first book Tiny Feet Between the Mountains and illustrated Circle Round by Anne Sibley O’Brien. She was also the recipient of the Caldecott Honor and the APALA winner for The Truth about Dragons by Julie Leung and also part of the Junior Library Gold Standard Selection for The House Before Falling Into the Sea by Ann Suk Wang.
