The exhibit, Under the Glow, showcases Nash’s interest in light and landscapes. She was inspired by trips to Iceland and Germany. “I felt the sun so strongly after hiking in the cold Alps, or trekking through glaciers along the Icelandic coast,” she says. “Just finding a bright spot in the clouds felt like magic.”

Nash, a SUNY New Paltz graduate and Beacon resident, is a high school art teacher in Westchester County. For more information, visit jessicanashart.com. Blackbird Attic is located at 442 Main St.
