Prince Frederick, MD: Calvert Library Prince Frederick is pleased to announce the newest exhibition in its Art in the Stacks Sarita PandeyOctober 2025 through January 2026.
Art in the Stacks transforms each Calvert Library location into a community gallery, with designated spaces at Prince Frederick showcasing professional, emerging, and student artists from Southern Maryland. Launched in 2012, the program brings art into everyday civic life, inviting discovery, reflection, and conversation for visitors of all ages.
About the Artist

Sarita Pandey is a visual artist working in acrylics, oils, and mixed media. Her work focuses on portraits, figures, and landscapes, often abstracted to capture the emotion, movement, and energy of the subject. Bold color, strong line, and expressive form define her visual language. Her connection to color is rooted in her upbringing in India, where brightness, contrast, and light saturate the everyday visual experience.
A gallery artist at CalvART Gallery in Prince Frederick, Pandey presented her solo exhibition, Juxta Bit of Pink, in September 2025. Her work has been selected for juried exhibitions across Maryland and the D.C. region, including Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center in Solomons Island (a Smithsonian affiliate); Towson Arts Collective in Baltimore; Glen Echo Park; the Accelerator at Howard County Economic Development Authority in Columbia; and more.
