GOSHEN, Ind. – Goshen College alumna Kristi Glick '97 and local artist Anne Binder will present an art exhibit that will include Glick's jewelry and Binder's calligraphy in Goshen College Music Center's Hershberger Art Gallery. There will be a reception for their exhibit on Sunday, Nov. 23 from 2 to 4 p.m. The exhibit will run until Jan. 18, 2009.

Glick's exhibit "Invitation. Stillness. Movement." was inspired by the beauty of nature, place and process. Glick works mainly with jewelry, enamel panels and prints. They offer a wealth of colors and textures as well as many surprising juxtapositions of objects such as enamel and snail shells, pearls and magnolia seeds.

After graduating from Goshen College in 1997, Glick received a master's degree in metal design from East Carolina University in 2007. In 2006, she received the second place award at the 7^th Annual Exhibition at the Rocky Mount Arts Center, a national juried exhibition.

Binder is a calligrapher, painter and fiber artist. She is co-founder of the Michiana Calligraphy Guild and is currently the executive director of Studio Arts Center of South Bend, Ind.

Binder will present large canvases and mixed-media wall hangings in this exhibit, "Beyond Words," of presenting poetry as the painted word.

The exhibit is open from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays, 1 p.m.-4 p.m. on Saturdays and 2 p.m.-4 p.m. on Sundays. It is free and open to the public.
