SUMMARY:June First Friday Gallery Opening
DESCRIPTION:On June 6th\, from 6-9pm\, join us for First Friday! Enjoy these openings: \nIn the Harrison Gallery\, CYCLO by Mailinh Hồ. In this exhibition\, Mailinh Hồ presents an array of soft oil paintings and vibrant watercolors as personal reflections. Snapshots of memories\, musings on nostalgia and an imagined future come together to ask\, “Where are you going and where are you from?” Like a dog chasing its tail\, we look behind us and keep on running. \nIn the Gallery Annex\, Backlogged Dreams by Kaylan Buteyn. Buteyn explores memory and the unconscious through textiles\, mixed media\, and watercolor. Drawing on imagery from her childhood log cabin home\, she pieces together fabric\, paint\, and mark-making in layered compositions that reflect how memories distort and evolve. \nIn the Speck Gallery\, Visual Rhythms by Mike Meares. This collection of acrylic paintings explores the energy of music through layers of line and color. Inspired by the emotions and complexity of song\, Meares creates spontaneous works shaped by the rhythms and melodies he listens to. The process reflects the transformative power of music\, inviting viewers to experience the emotional depth of sound through visual art. \nIn the City Gallery\, Alternate Route by Phillip Lynam. In this exhibition\, Lynam presents paintings and drawings that reflect the quiet beauty found in the light\, structure\, and geometry of Indianapolis. Working primarily with acrylic\, graphite\, and colored pencil on panel and paper\, Lynam captures fleeting urban moments through a subtle\, observational lens. \nIn the Hank & Dolly’s Gallery\, Hanging by a Thread by Liz Hamstra. This vibrant collection plays with the tension between symmetry\, asymmetry\, and color. Using acrylic and thread on canvas\, the artist weaves a kaleidoscopic world where shapes and patterns collide. The embroidery thread adds depth and texture\, enhancing the dynamic relationship between the geometric elements and the chaotic landscapes of color. \nIn the Underground Gallery\, Liminal Wonder by Liz Nelson. Liminal Wonder explores beauty in overlooked spaces and moments of transition. Using acrylic and mixed media on wood and canvas\, the artist highlights how line\, form\, and color reveal joy in the mundane and potential in the in-between. Each piece invites quiet reflection and appreciation for subtle shifts that shape our surroundings. \nGuests can also enjoy: \nMusical performances on the Sky Deck with 2025 Art & Soul featured artist Brandon Lott\, thanks to a grant from the Indy Arts Council. Lott began his career in 2014 as a music intern at the Harrison Center while attending Herron High School. In 2022\, Brandon signed with 199X Sound\, an independently-run artist management company based in LA. His work blends R&B and neo soul with global influences\, aiming to inspire listeners to explore their inner selves and question the mysteries of existence. \nBloom Together: Flower-Making Project in the Courtyard. Get creative and help transform our grounds into a vibrant garden of giant blooms! Led by artist Allison Schilawski\, this hands-on community art experience invites everyone to design and build large-scale flowers\, then “plant” them in the garden beds for all to enjoy. \nAll shows will open at 6:00 pm on Friday\, June 6th.  \nVisitors can take in-person gallery tours Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. Online galleries will open on April 5th. You can make an appointment or view the online galleries at harrisoncenter.org/buy-art. \nSpecial Senior Hours are every Friday from 2:00pm – 4:00pm.

SUMMARY:Parvo vaccination clinic
DESCRIPTION:Indy’s Parvo Prevention Project will host a free Parvo vaccination clinic from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Oct. 12 at LifeJourney Church. \nThe event is sponsored by LDR Rescue and will vaccinate dogs against distemper\, hepatitis\, Parvovirus and parainfluenza. In addition to the vaccinations\, dogs will receive microchips to help veterinarians and owners locate them if lost. Ministerial staff from the church will be there to provide blessings for dogs and families. \n“Too many dogs aren’t getting the affordable and effective vaccinations for the highly lethal\, expensive-to-treat Parvovirus\, and the results are heartbreaking\,” said Robin Herman\, the founder of LDR Rescue and organizer of the event. \nGiven the low cost of the vaccine\, the proportion of deaths is unfortunate\, Herman said. \n“When new puppy owners meet with most vets for the first time\, they are confronted with packaged options that can run up to several hundred dollars\,” Herman said. “If they do nothing else\, they should ask for the Parvo vaccine\, which can cost as little as $16.” \nHerman said the goal of the project is to inoculate 500 dogs at the clinic and conduct other events throughout the year. The first event earlier this year vaccinated 385 dogs. \n“Our rescue has fostered more dogs than ever since the pandemic who are suffering from Parvo\,” she said. “People adopted dogs who didn’t understand the risk\, and at the same time\, veterinarians have been busier than ever because of all the adoptions.” \nThe vaccinations were donated by a nonprofit\, Petco Love\, making the event free to dog owners and a great opportunity to get vaccinations. \n“It is heartbreaking when any pet suffers or dies from a disease that could have been prevented\,” said Susanne Kogut\, Petco Love president. “By creating greater awareness and making this crucial preventative care more accessible to pets not currently receiving these life-saving vaccines\, we can prevent the dangerous spread of disease.” \nDog owners will be able to drive through the clinic. Owners will receive guidance on any recommended immunization follow-ups. The LifeJourney Church is at 2950 E. 55th Place. \nNoise phobia and blue-green algae pose summer health risks for dogs   – Indianapolis Recorder \nContact Health & Environmental Reporter Hanna Rauworth at 317-762-7854 or follow her on Instagram at @hanna.rauworth.
