Good & Plenty - New works by Barbara Gilhooly & Ayn Hanna

Opening Reception: Friday, Nov 14, 6-9pm

Exhibition Runs: Nov 14 - Dec 28, 2025

Good & Plenty brings together two artists united by a shared belief in abundance, joy, and the enduring power of what is good in the human spirit. This exhibition celebrates color, craft, and the pleasures of making.

The show takes its name from a large textile work whose palette echoes the nostalgic candy, but the title speaks to something larger: a philosophy of plenty over scarcity, optimism over cynicism, and beauty as a form of generosity.

One hundred small carved paintings on wood fill the gallery like a chorus of color and pattern, each piece a meditation in itself, together forming a joyful abundance. Alongside them, stitched textile wall works in various scales offer texture, warmth, and the evidence of countless hours spent with needle and thread.

Good & Plenty is an invitation to pause and remember that there is still room for lightness and wonder—a space filled with handmade beauty, nostalgic warmth, and the belief that love and goodness will always find a way to shine through.
