Gallery 310 explores the intersections of color and fabric in fall exhibition: "Color Entwined"
Marietta, OH (09/03/2025) — The Marietta College Art Department is proud to present "Color Entwined", a three-person exhibition featuring the work of artists Molly Fitzpatrick, Andrea Myers, and Marietta College alumnus Mark Olshansky '50. The exhibition will be on display in Gallery 310 from Sept. 10 through Dec. 2, 2025, with an artists' reception scheduled for Friday, Oct. 24, from 4 to 5:30 p.m.
"Color Entwined" reflects the interconnectivity of color between the exhibiting artists. Through bold use of fabric and thread, each artist invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships with these materials - both tactile and emotional, personal and shared.
Molly Fitzpatrick received her BFA in Fiber and Materials from the Cleveland Institute of Art. Her home textiles are featured and sold at the Museum of Modern Art Design Store in New York City and Nordstrom.

Myers' work has been exhibited internationally, most recently, in Tokyo, Japan, and the Springfield Museum of Art in Springfield, Ohio.
