This term’s catalog features artwork by Cover Art Contest winner Boriana Kantcheva. Originally from Bulgaria, Boriana has lived and worked in the Boston area for over 20 years. Currently, she is Director of Visual Arts at Mosesian Center for the Arts in Watertown. Boriana’s newest gouache on paper paintings are inspired by the book Into the Forest by Jean Hegland. They are imagined journeys into the myth, wonder, and danger of the natural world. In “Fall House,” the forest becomes a source of inspiration and comfort, offering a place of peaceful introspection, and a child-like longing to return to a more natural state.

“The ACE staff was captivated by the intricate details and the lush color palette of Boriana’s painting,” said ACE Director Jen Rothenberg. “We chose her work because of how the complexity of her imagery compels you to take a closer look.”
If you do not receive a printed catalog in the mail and would like one, they are available in news bins near Capitol Theater and Trader Joe's. You can also view the entire catalog and register for all classes at ArlingtonCommunityEd.org. Many classes fill quickly and under-enrolled classes are canceled, so be sure to reserve your spot early.
