I’m pleased to share the opening of Second Skin: Exploring Adornment as an Extension of Self on First Friday, February 6, at the Belger Crane Yard Gallery. The exhibition includes my work alongside a group of national artists.
Second Skin features work by Cheryl Eve Acosta, Shae Bishop, Hadley Clark, Mona Cliff, Patrycja Grzesznik, Kit Paulson, and Rob Stern. In addition, works from the Belger Collection by artists including Kate Kretz, Ellen Greene, and Renée Stout will be on view.

Also, join us for a glass blowing demo led by Glass Resident Tyler Suter, a silversmithing demo with award-winning artist Genevieve Flynn, and more this First Friday.
