Join us for an artist talk on August 21 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. ! Bronle Crosby, Julia C R Gray, and Theresa Vandenberg Donche will all share more about themselves, their process, and their works in their exhibition, Turning Tides! The exhibition will present works by all 12 TWA group members, showcasing their individual visions of what “Turning Tides” means to them. As we head into a changed world, post-pandemic and with social and political shifts, these are expressions of hope during transition, of ways to move forward, of the force of the spirit and the resilience of nature. The works are in a range of media: from textiles to painting, ceramic and bronze sculpture to mixed media, and in many styles, from abstract to whimsical to realism. The group has been working and showing together for 6 years, and were recently featured at the Oceanside Museum of Art in an exhibition titled “Now.” Member artists also show individually, in galleries and museums on both coasts, and their work is held in corporate and private collections worldwide. Seats are limited, so please RSVP ahead of time!
