SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibit Featuring Works by Scavenger Art Creations
DESCRIPTION:Featuring works by Scavenger Art Creations\nJuly 16 – September 2\, 2026\nGallery Hours: 7 days/week\, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.\nFree & Open to the Public \n  \nTim Taggart grew up in Brownsville\, Vermont. He spent his youth hunting and fishing\, and much of his adult life as a wildland firefighter while living in Nevada. After retiring from firefighting\, Tim and wife Pam moved to the Boise\, Idaho area with their five children. In 2019\, he  began sculpting with recycled metal and ignited his creative passion. With his creative mind and skill from welding\, Tim began to create his art from salvage materials and found objects. His work is designed to emphasize resourcefulness and encourage viewer engagement.\nTogether Tim and Pam scour for scrap metal at local flea markets\, thrift stores and yard sales. Tim uses anything and everything he can lay his hands on for example auto parts\, cycle components\, sprockets\, gears\, old tools\, horseshoes and metal scrap. His artistic gift is what gives a new lease of life to them. \nPam recently retired in 2021 as a teacher working with at-risk middle and high school students. Her creativity started back in the 1970’s when she used to macrame and crochet. A few years ago she decided to start up the macrame creations\, knowing that it would be something of interest and a fun hobby throughout the retirement days to come. To keep with the scavenger art objective of using upcycled materials\, Pam has also begun to create garden art using old tea pots\, glass bowls and costume jewelry. \nThe metal art created is rustic\, not polished or painted. “We want to create metal art pieces that are in their original\, somewhat rusty appearance to give it a unique look\, and also make it affordable for others to enjoy.”  Pam and Tim both have been selling their creations over the past 6 years. \nSince February of 2022\, Tim and Pam have been living in the town/village of Cambridge\, New York. “We wanted to move back east close to where Tim grew up and where the towns have a smaller population along with beautiful views of nature.” The goal is to continue creating metal art\, macrame and garden art in order to inspire others to appreciate the simple\, neglected items from which our creations are formed.

SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibit featuring works by Nancy Pierson
DESCRIPTION:The Gallery at Equinox Village is excited to feature works by Nancy Pierson. The exhibit opens Friday\, September 18 and will remain on display until November 2. The Gallery is open 7 days a week from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. and is free to visit. \nNancy Pierson: “Struggling artist” has never been my M.O. I have gratefully enjoyed a happy\, healthy 98 years\, married to a wonderful man\, raising five lovely daughters\, and sharing our lives with eight or nine dogs along the way. \nMy artistic journey began with classes taught by Margaret Yard Tyler\, a well-known pastel portrait artist in Montclair\, New Jersey. Portraits of children were fashionable at the time\, but I couldn’t afford to have my daughters painted\, so I decided to learn how to do it myself. Before long\, friends began asking me to paint their children\, and my hobby developed into a portrait business. \nWanting to learn more\, I began traveling into New York City twice a week to study at the renowned Art Students League. The beautiful old building\, with its wonderful smells of turpentine and oil and its rich history\, held a special magic for me. I learned from accomplished artists\, worked with professional models\, and spent many happy hours drawing and painting. \nI eventually purchased a small studio apartment on the Upper East Side—much to my husband’s initial concern. Years later\, he was heard to ask\, “Why didn’t you buy a two bedroom?” It became both a wonderful creative retreat and a good investment. \nAfter several years of drawing\, I decided to develop a more marketable skill and managed to gain admission to the Fashion Institute of Technology\, despite being considerably older than its typical student. Two years later\, I had several jobs in fashion illustration. \nEventually\, I happily settled into painting simply because I loved it. I painted people I found endlessly fascinating\, places I loved and wanted to “be in\,” and objects\, flowers\, and plants that captured my attention through their shapes\, colors\, and reflections. Painting brought a sense of wonder\, excitement\, and purpose to my life. \nI am especially grateful to one of my grandmothers\, a dairy farmer’s wife\, mother of five\, church organist\, and newspaper writer. Though she had little opportunity to pursue artistic interests\, she left us one beautiful still life—a lasting reminder of her own talent and an inspiration to me. \nAnother important part of my life has been volunteering. My most rewarding experience was tutoring at a Christian drug and alcohol rehabilitation center for men. I helped residents improve their reading and writing skills\, supported several in earning their GEDs\, organized art days and trips to New York City\, and helped produce an annual Christmas pageant. The men created remarkable and deeply personal artwork\, and I was fortunate enough to paint portraits of several of them. Some still proudly display those portraits in their homes. \nBeing a wife and mother to Amy\, Kaki\, Jennifer\, Sally\, and Phoebe has been my greatest role in life. But painting has given me another extraordinary gift: a lifelong opportunity to observe\, create\, connect\, and find beauty in the world around me. \nAnd I have had a great deal of fun doing it.
