Ceramics Show opens June 19
Space presents unearthed, a group show of local ceramic artists. Brenda Holzke, Toti O'Brien, Jocelyn Webb Pedersen, David Prince, Nicole Ruelle-Oppenheimer, Rebecca Tager and Cynthia Thiel celebrate the organic nature and history of the medium - the happy accidents and surprises; the tactile relationship with the object. The work ranges from ancient-looking vessels to objects resembling things found in nature. Come join us for the opening Saturday, June 19, with a reception from 6:00 - 9:00 p.m.

Art Opening on May 1
SPACE is excited to announce the opening of Our Shaky Civilization, with Animals - collaborative paintings on wood by a family of artists, Abira Ali, Gordon Henderson and Eliza Bee Henderson. The work depicts a shaky civilization where what we once knew as wilderness has been removed and reassembled to resemble a theme park. People and animals cohabitate in the small space they’ve been given, struggling to maintain their now irrational instincts. Opens on May 1, with a reception from 6:00 - 9:00 p.m.
On May 15, join us at 8:00 p.m. for Our Shaky Stories, with Animals - an evening of adult storytelling with members of the Write Club; Ramsey Brown, Lauri Fraser, Gordon Henderson, Jane Morris and Clara York. Hosted by Helena H. (This event contains mature content, so it's better to leave this kids at home.)
