Functional Art is the theme of our September First Friday Show and artist reception. This exhibit honors the rediscovery and appreciation of how art, in its aesthetic & visually pleasing form, can be both creative and useful; it can impart beauty and practicality, merging artistry with the functions of our daily routines. Functional art has been created throughout history, from basketry, pottery & metalwork with symbolic imagery, glassware, fiber art reflected in accessories and clothing, furniture and cabinetry, and so much more. Our artist reception opens on First Friday and then again on Saturday, the 12th for those who prefer day events. (By popular demand)
