Strange Way to Go: Scott Gyllstrom at the Spokane Art School
2026-04-03 17:00 - 20:00 | Spokane Art School, 503 E 2nd Ave, Spokane, Washington, 99202, United States
Exhibition Title: Strange Way to Go
Artist: Scott Gyllstrom
Opening Reception: First Friday, April 3 | 5–8 PM
Location: Spokane Art School, 503 E. Second Ave Spokane, WA 99022
Scott Gyllstrom is a self-taught artist from Spokane, Washington, working in a variety of mediums including oil, acrylic, and ink. His work ranges from pattern-based compositions to abstract and figurative imagery, often blending these approaches within a single piece.
Through layered forms, mark-making, and shifting visual elements, Gyllstrom creates work that invites viewers to slow down and explore. Each piece offers something unexpected—small details, hidden relationships, or visual rhythms that reveal themselves over time.
Strange Way to Go brings together works that play with this sense of discovery, encouraging viewers to engage with the artwork in their own way and find meaning in the strange, the playful, and the unfamiliar.

Please join us on Friday, April 3rd, from 5 to 8, for the opening of “Cry Baby”, an innovative and thought provoking new exhibit by Missoula artist Elisha Harteis.

This is going to be a significantly engaging exhibit by a wildly inventive and deeply perceptive artist. “Cry Baby” runs through the end of the month. D2 Gallery, 310 W. First Ave., Spokane, WA 99201

PPP Welcomes Karen Vollmer-Poseley & Mia Simonsen as Guest Artists in April!
2026-04-03 17:00 - 20:00 | Pottery Place Plus, 203 N Washington St, #200a, Spokane, WA, 99201, United States
This April Pottery Place Plus is pleased to present the resin art of Karen Vollmer-Poseley and the sculpted wool of Mia Simonsen.
Karen finds the magic of the resin art form is in the process of watching each piece become unique in the final form ~ no two pieces are alike!
Mia’s “Owl Song Feltery” creates botanicals out of wool ~ cactus and succulents were her first botanicals of choice, and more recently mushrooms and other fungi.
Karen’s resin art and Mia’s needle felting allows them to design botanicals year-round. Stop by PPP in the historic Liberty Building in April to view their “botanical art” ~ stop by on First Friday April 3rd from 5-8pm to meet the artists!

ART COLLECTORS ANGIE & CHRIS
2026-04-03 17:00 - 20:00 | Marmot Art Space, 1202 W Summit Pkwy, Spokane, Washington, 99201, United States
DSP FF 4/26
It’s First Friday time!
First Friday is one of the best things about Spokane. We hope you get out and see a bunch of different First Friday shows.
There are all kinds of venues showing all kinds of artists.
There’s a place for every taste and skill level.
If you’re looking for some stunning art from award-winning professional artists then Marmot is the place for you!
This First Friday we’ll do something you’ve probably never seen. We’ll celebrate a couple of Art Collectors!
Have you ever met one? The can be pretty awesome, especially Marmot fans.
Meet Angie and Chris. They’ve got a very contemporary art collection. Learn about it. Get to know them. Grrreat couple!
Are collecting is something normal that normal people do. We encourage it at Marmot.
Marmot is a commercial art gallery and Spokane doesn’t have much of a history of commercial art galleries. There was one back in the 90s, but nothing since then.
Commercial galleries exist in the big cities like New York and San Francisco, but rarely in midsize cities like Spokane. In order to keep them alive you need an art buying culture and generally that’s a generational thing.
But we’ve somehow found the support here in Spokane. Thank you!
Come say, “Hi!” to everyone this First Friday, April 3rd, at Marmot Art Space. Doors open at 5 PM!

First Friday: What's on the other side
2026-04-03 17:00 - 21:00 | Entropy, 101 N. Stevens St.,, Spokane, WA, 99201, United States
We exist in a moment of over-stimulation and information saturation, a moment where a short descriptive paragraph can create a beautiful, sparkling image for us, but then be quickly forgotten and dissolved back into the ether of the internet.This work is a playful way to make commentary on the serious questions about AI art. Using very simple pre-programmed vacuuming/mopping robots with some minimal modifications I wrangle the robots to produce something visually interesting. The catch is, just like AI, these robots cannot do it on their own. They need input and a lot of help from a person to make the art.
