Come join me at Kalico Art Center's first Saturday Session

I’m excited to share that I will be the guest artist at Kalico Art Centers Saturday Sessions November 14th, 2020 11-1 pm.

I will be doing a short talk on the making of my Downtown Stories sculpture project. In addition, I will invite each participant to make a tabletop version of their own to take home. It’s open to all ages, and it’s FREE.

Saturday Sessions are education-based opportunities inviting the community to meet and make with local contemporary artists.

I hope you’ll join us.

"Downtown Stories" Community Art Collaboration

This Autumn I participated in Kalico Art Center’s “Downtown Stories” community art project. The premise was to match up local artists with local businesses. The artist would create an art installation that visually tells the story of the business and the art would be placed in the windows of the businesses. Kalico created a map for the community to come out and see the art installations and learn more about the downtown businesses in their community.

It was a wonderful experience for me. I loved getting to know the folks at Montana Modern Fine Art Gallery, (whom I was matched up with), meeting the other artists who participated, and learning more about the back story of the businesses that took part in the project.
