This program is supported by a grant from the Malden Cultural Council, a local agency supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
The artwork by Edward Cardini will be on display throughout March.
Edward describes his work:
My art is a dynamic interplay of various techniques, combining elements of realism, impressionism, expressionism, and post-cubism.
Through my art, I aim to create a visual journey that fascinates and resonates with the viewer, inviting them to explore the depths of color, contrast, and composition.
