In this new exhibition in the Atrium Gallery of Covington's Christwood Retirement Community, artist and art instructor Gretchen Armbruster has curated a collection of art by men who have turned to art for healing after a heart attack, stroke, or other illness. "And many," she said, "finding themselves in front of a canvass—some for the first time—realized they had talent and had found a new and exciting love.” A selection of artists include Mel Moncada, John Goodwin, Bill Rhinebold, A.J. Englade, Robert Santopadre, Michael Lafrance, Ferris Hottard, Bill Stewart, Chuck Wright, Robert Labranche, Ben Benson, Ryan Perea, Jim Elsey, Nick Pechon, Steve Gardener, Keith Ladner, Jim Brown, Glen Perriloux, and Jim Seitz. An opening reception will be held on January 11 from 4:30 pm–6:30 pm. Free. christwoodrc.com.
