Common Threads Art Exhibit

Arts and Entertainment

January 25, 2023

From: Museum of Darien

An abstract art show inspired by MoD’s historic quilt collection and will feature fresh, colorful artwork in many mediums by the Concepts Group.

The artists: Donna Collins, Carol Conze, Cate Leach, Pam Lindberg, Jane Lubin, Mary Manning, Karen Neems, Lisa Thoren, Meg Tweedy and Cynthia Whalen have been collaborating for decades. The majority of the group live in Darien, and this will be their fourth show in MoD’s gallery. This year, three special guest artists will join them for the fundraiser: Amy Allen, MoD’s executive director,  Constance Kiermaier, the Concepts Group’s founder and Lori Leckliter, a conceptual artist.

The show plays with the theme of common threads, both literal and abstract as the historic quilts of MoD are reimagined in contemporary, lively art work. And common threads of thought, pattern and color weave through the artists’ pieces.

Art is for sale, with 30% contributed to the museum.
