Sinsinawa Art Gallery, Sinsinawa, Wisconsin, will host “Heritage Exhibit: Works from the Motherhouse Collection,” May 12–Aug. 4. This annual show once again features works by various sister artists of the Sinsinawa Dominican congregation, as well as other pieces old and new to the motherhouse collection. This variety includes a 1970s painting of the New Diggings, Wisconsin, church designed and built by Father Samuel Mazzuchelli, OP, in 1847; a lively depiction of the sisters in Trinidad by local artist Trevor St. George; contemporary depictions of gospel scenes by Trinidad artist Jackie Hinkson; and a collection of late 19th- and early 20th-century oil paintings given to the congregation over the years.
