Please join us for a conversation with Kathleen Knowling, a visual artist whose daily practice continues at age 97. Learn about her most recent exhibition: Art is What Makes Life More Interesting Than Art, which showcases the heart of Kathleen’s creative world – her handmade sketchbooks. Kathleen’s drawings, poetry, collages, and whimsical reflections invite you into her decades-long artistic journey, which is rich with curiosity, resilience, and fresh perspectives.
This is a free event but a ticket is required. Reserve your free ticket online or by calling 709-757-8090.
Kathleen has an extensive exhibition history, and her artworks are part of many public and private collections in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
She holds a BA in History from Barnard College at Columbia University in New York. She also studied at Mount Allison University, Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NSCAD) University, and MUN Extension Arts.
In 1977, Kathleen initiated and organized the life-drawing program, Group of 77, which has been active for almost 50 years. Today, she is part of the Senior Artist Sunday Group and continues with her professional practice.
