Artisans

Cathy Collison
When I work I love using non-traditional colors and, because there are endless combinations and outcomes, the process always keeps my interest.

Mel Tudisco
I am energized by the reaction and the texture that is created on metal when I torture it with heat, pounding, or paint.

Matt Eastvold
Our furniture is designed to stand the test of time, and we believe that the creation of each piece should benefit both our community and our planet.

Colleen Riley
I strive to make pots that are elegant, yet comfortable and inviting for use. European decorative arts of the early 20th century, textiles, and Japanese woodblock prints are primary influences in my work.

Dawn Makarios
I am a “clay” potter—meaning that I enjoy the feel of throwing a pot on the wheel, working with the raw clay, rolling slabs, running the pug mill, hand building trays, trimming feet on bowls and just about everything there is to do with the bare clay.

Carla Thompson
I am inspired by the simple moments in life. Bright colors are truly my friends!

Nancy Carlson
Painting for me is a way to be creative and to communicate thoughts and feelings.

Lori Schmidt
It's all about the beads! Beaded beads, beads sewn into cube shapes and I'm making glass beads.

Jessica Prill

Marisa Martinez
Designing unique pieces of jewelry allows her to combine her love for color, cultural history, and art making.

Amanda Kopplin

Terra LaChance
Terra K. LaChance plays with fabric creating whimsical characters ready to be loved, cuddled and passed down through the generations.

Barbara Zaveruha
After wandering through engineering, sociology, anthropology, motherhood and technical writing, I finally found my true calling in the mid-1990s, when I first got my hands in real clay.

Jennifer Wolcott
Half the year I work in steel; in black and air, so it’s exciting to switch to silliness and color in time for Christmas when the world goes white.

Lars Stromayer
It's not that complicated. It's just me, some tools, and a big pile of wood.

David Peterson

Joel Froehle
The possibility of making objects that can exist within the realm of human interaction is part of what first attracted me to ceramics and this thought still intrigues me today.

John Ehresmann
I enjoy my time at the torch taking a common material, glass, and with simple tools produce something of beauty and lasting value.

Shona Brooks
A facet of my communication strength is shown through my love for bold and bright colored art.

Ian Baldry
Ian is a fiber artist who creates fine knit sweaters and accessories from merino wool, cotton, and bamboo yarns.

Meredith Fierke & Annie Larson
It is always fun for us to bring forth our individual styles and feed off of each others creativity.

Heather Lawrenz
When creating jewelry, my starting point is finding recycled objects such
as bottle caps and sliced glass rings from vases and bottles.
Cassidy Van Boylan
I have been in love and enthralled with jewelry and nature since I was small. Since then, I have been working on mixing the two elements.

Leanne Stremcha
I take pride in my art, and as a bonus, I get to play with fire!

Kathy Anderson
No patterns, no rules and no preconceived ideas of what the final piece will be, only an unwavering faith in the act of letting go and just letting it happen.
