Amazing Art: Earth Day Event at C. Parker Gallery in Greenwich

 

Special Earth Day Event Saturday, April 22 at 2:00 p.m. at the C. Parker Gallery in Greenwich. The Gallery will present a special Earth Day event honoring the late artist Mira Lehr's legacy as one of the pioneer champions for protecting the planet. Free and open to the public (RSVP required in advance to info@cparkergallery.com).

The first exhibition after the passing of the nationally acclaimed, environmental artist Mira Lehr (she passed away on January 24). The gallery is located in the Tri-State region, in Greenwich.


Nature’s Rallying Cry: Honoring Mira Lehr coincides with Women’s History Month in March, and Earth Day in April. 

“The C. Parker Gallery is thrilled to bring Mira Lehr’s important artworks to the northeast for this show. Lehr was a pioneer in the arts, a leader in environmental activism, and a champion of women. Lehr’s vision of a better world shines through in this exhibition,” says Tiffany Benincasa, owner of the C. Parker Gallery. 

“This collection gives tribute to both Mira Lehr and some of her final artworks. During the week of Art Basel Miami Beach, I was honored to work with Mira at her home studio, where she invited me to collaborate on selecting works. As we continued this selection process into January, I could not have imagined this would be the last time Mira Lehr would personally plan an exhibition,” adds Tiffany Benincasa.
