Whose faces are on Janice Hayes-Cha’s Wellesley Town Hall?

Janice Hayes-Cha’s collage of Wellesley Town Hall is an amazing portrait of the 1886 Romanesque style building, crafted from recycled greeting cards.  Look closely and you’ll find some hidden surprises. The artist has included images of some notable Wellesley residents.

Katharine Lee Bates who wrote America the Beautiful;

Poet Sylvia Plath;

Joseph Edward Murray who won the Nobel prize in medicine for the first kidney transplant;

Henry Durant who founded Wellesley College;

Jane Curtin and Mindy Kalig, comedians, writers, actors and producers

Emily Greene Balch, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize;

Horatio Hollis Hunnewell who worked to create the town of Wellesley and a philanthropic leader;

Roger Nash Baldwin, the founder of the ACLU.

Also hidden in the sky and stone are Wellesley College's accomplished alumnae, Madeline Albright and

Hilary Clinton.

 We are delighted to have prints of the collage for sale at Clever Hand Gallery. We also have framed prints of Janice’s scenes of Boston and Cambridge.
