"Sacred Circles: Mandalas For The Soul" now on exhibit at Russell Library


Rose Petronella's drawings and paintings using Mandalas are on exhibit at Russell Library.
Sacred Circles:  Mandalas for the Soul by Rose Amodeo Petronella 
on Exhibit at Russell Library Throughout February and March. 

Mandalas are circle designs found in spiritual traditions around the world.  They represent health and wholeness of body, mind and spirit. The mandalas in this exhibit began as a spiritual healing exercise during a difficult time of life and evolved into a form of prayer, which continues years later. There are 42 works on exhibit throughout the library. The public is invited to attend an artist's reception on February 26 at 2:00pm. in the Information Services area on the second floor of the library. Light refreshments will be served. 


Rose Amodeo Petronella is a spiritual director, retreat leader and retired minister in the United Church of Christ.  She recently published Honoring the Soul: Mandalas for Inspiration and Insight.  Copies of the book will be available at the Artist's Reception. 
Ms. Petronella will give a special workshop entitled, "Drawing Mandalas For Insight Into Life Issues" on Friday, March 31st at 10:30am in the Hubbard Room. It is drop-in, and no registration is required. 
"Justice" is one of the pieces in Rose Petronella's exhibit.
