Twentieth
Annual Holiday Gift Show & Sale
“Celebrate!”
Confluence Gallery celebrates the season and 20 years of bringing
art and arts education to the Methow Valley with its 20th Annual
Holiday Gift Show and Sale.
The show features the work of local and regional artists and
artisans. In addition to paintings, textiles, photography, metal
work, and sculpture, there will be festive gift items. Here
is a sampling of the original gifts and flourishes you can expect
to find:
Glass artists are busy crafting ornaments and other decorative
items. Laura Aspenwall and Lauri Kain are creating glass Christmas
globes; and Laura Ruud is making small fused glass mirrors,
dishware and platters, jewelry, and candle holders with a Christmas
motif. Jeremy Newman and Allison Ciancibelli will exhibit fine
art glass from Twisp River Glassworks.
Ceramic art comes from the creative hands of Jane Perrigo, who
will be showing ceramic tile-and-copper mirrors, and Kathleen
Learned, who crafts small plates and vases. Learned, Jim Neupert
and Shelley Rozell will offer functional pieces for the home
and table.
Other décor for the tree or the mantle comes from Ellie
Easley, who creates delightful origami paper ornaments and Dan
Brown, whose metal work enlivens any space. Textile artist Susannah
Young will show wall hangings and functional textiles.
Local and regional jewelry, felted purses, hand turned wood
bowls, and a wide variety of stocking stuffers provide gifts
in all price ranges
.
The holiday gift show runs from November 10 through January
5 and begins with a celebratory open house on Saturday, November
10, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
