First Friday Art Walk November 2017

November First Friday

FREE Community Art Event

November 3, @ 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Featured Photographer:  Julie Bonney

Show:  Into the Woods

Please join Julie Bonney, a member of The Photographer’s Gallery at Ashland Art Center, for the First Friday Art Walk, November 3rd.  Julie is a local photographer who finds inspiration in the natural beauty of Southern Oregon and Northern California.  To quote John Muir, “The clearest way into the universe is through a forest wilderness.” A wooded scene that has depth to it is beacon for Julie to stop and linger, wanting to enter and explore more. To her it feels as though there is a great mystery hiding somewhere within and is an invitation to enter.  To enter not only the woods but into a deeper relationship with nature and self.  Please come into the woods.

Show: Saori – the journey of freeform weaving

Thalia has been experiementing with a freeform weaving technique called Saori, which was developed by a Japanese woman, Misao Jo.  This technique relies on the weavers own intuition, rather than rigid rules to create woven pieces.
