Come meet our January artists, photographer Alex Mankowski, and glass artist Rachel Becker at a Meet & Greet reception, Thursday, January 29, from 7-8 pm

Come connect with our January artists at our Meet & Greet!

Please join us for a relaxed Meet & Greet reception celebrating two local artists whose work explores connection—from wild outdoor moments to joyful fused glass creation

featuring: Alex Mankowski—a photographer who loves chasing good light, fresh air, and a little adventure. Inspired by climbing, skiing, and time outdoors, his work captures the fun, feeling, and connection found in wild places.
and
Rachel Becker—retired from tech, she traded screens for mountains, yoga mats, and a glass kiln in the garage. Her fused glass work—made with both art and recycled glass—is all about creativity, community, and a little everyday joy.

Stop by, say hi, and enjoy an evening of art, conversation, and community.
Thursday, January 29, from 7-8 pm.
These exhibits will be on display at the Millcreek Branch throughout January.
