Zen Sanctuary
Guild Hall Gallery
Continuing in her grandmother’s creative footsteps, Lucy Krupenye has curated a peaceful and meditative atmosphere in the Hammond Museum’s Guild Hall Gallery.
Krupenye has gathered together from across the Northeast works of 23 artists who share her philosophical and aesthetic vision for creating art that can serve as guides toward peace and transcendence both in our inner and outer environments. This exhibition inspires introspection and can point the 
viewer to th many paths of different meditative states. Each artist’s contribution offers his/her take, using many different artistic styles and materials, on what creates or inspires calmness, introspection, quiet, and observation.
According to Krupenye, “We are living in extremely difficult times, and I have created a Zen Sanctuary so visitors can have a tranquil escape from the world and be surrounded by peace, calm, and beauty.”
