SAVE THE DATES: 3rd Annual Gumbo ClayFest set for July 11-13, 2024!
The ClayFest is a public event involving demonstrations and workshops for those interested in making ceramics, admiring completed works, or just interested in watching the fascinating process.
Gumbo ClayFest will feature several nationally-recognized ceramists who will demonstrate the different techniques for which they are known.
The Alternative Show – Call for entries!
The Alternative Show is specifically directed to the novice, outsider, and beginning artists along with the myriad of creatives, young and old, skilled, and not so much, who grace our walls with art. Not only is it a positive experience for everyone, but it’s also a chance to exhibit in a collective of works by people who share the love of art in all its joys and aberrations. As an exhibitor, here or anywhere, you have joined an amazing community of like-minded people who are erratically different.
First Thursday in the Maudee Gallery: “From the Depths” graphite portraits and sketches by Britt Fair
“My biggest hope for each work I do is to have it pull on the hearts of the person looking at it; to evoke their emotions in the deepest ways and have them see the beauty in things they never knew was there. To feel the love that I put into each piece.”
Band Nite this SATURDAY: Yeehaw, it’s a hoedown!
The Art Studio Inc. brings on another fresh lineup of LIVE ORIGINAL MUSIC on the last Saturday of each month! Come dressed in your boots and cowboy hats – the theme for the March show is HOEDOWN!
*The theme does not necessarily reflect the genres of music that will be featured, see lineup!*
