She is also the founder of the global community Radical Joy for Hard Times\, devoted to finding and making beauty in wounded places.

She has led contemplative journeys in a clear-cut forest\, Ground Zero in New York City\, the Sahara Desert\, and with military veterans.

The title gestures toward that hazy threshold between dreaming and daylight… the moment before the mind snaps back into its daily operating manual. Both artists create from a place of awe\, trying to hold onto the wonder that can get swallowed by routine. \nWooster’s multimedia series\, Cathedrals from Pieces\, blends drawing\, painting\, and collage into figurative and architectural forms. She describes her process as a return to curiosity: a reminder that we’re clusters of molecules spinning through space\, somehow capable of love\, grief\, invention\, and joy. That sense of improbable magic fuels her work and her childlike romanticism of the world. \nSchilling’s practice investigates the emotional terrain between humans and their environments. In The Overview Effect\, he turns toward space travel\, exploring the astronaut’s suit as both armor and boundary. His oil\, watercolor\, and mixed-media pieces capture the homesickness\, solitude\, and acceptance that accompany exploration and change. \nTogether\, Wooster and Schilling offer a shared inquiry into connection—how we experience the world\, how we hold onto wonder\, and how we navigate the unknown. \n***A special event will accompany the exhibition: on December 12\, 2025\, the Jesse Collins Jazz Ensemble will perform live at MIX Art Gallery from 7–9 PM.

The donations are vintage and contemporary\, professional and amateur; classic and funky\, antique and modern. There are paintings\, photography\, etchings\, prints\, small sculpture\, pottery\, embroidery\, and so much more. (Note: Local artists are not asked to donate their own work.) \nThe sale works well on two levels. Hundreds of people find joy in purchasing and coming to see what we have collected\, AND community members feel good about donating their unused art collection to a good cause.   \nWork is priced low so we can sell as out in 9 days. Prices drop throughout the sale. \nWe thank our generous annual sponsor of the ArtSpace Gallery Coughlin and Gerhart URL:https://www.downtownithaca.com/event/cap-a-palooza-vintage-art-sale-extraordinaire/2025-12-06/ LOCATION:Community Arts Partnership of Tompkins County\, 110 N.
