HANCOCK -- The holidays are over and it's business as usual.  But for those of you who still want a little relaxation, some places are offering a place to escape.

Finlandia University reopened an art exhibit on campus for public viewing.  The "From Here to There" exhibit features work from artist Marja Lianko.
    
Lianko's gallery display pieces reflect different stages throughout her life.  Gallery Director Carrie Flaspohler says visiting a gallery can have a calming effect.

"It gives you different perspectives that maybe you hadn't thought about.  In this case in particular, I think there's something beautiful.  Her work is really about beauty and natural beauty," said Flaspohler.   

"From Here to There" will be open at the Finnish American Heritage Center through January 12.
