By Hand: Makers Among Us

August 14 - September 18, 2021

Opening reception Saturday, August 14, 2021, 5:00pm-7:00pm

This exhibition looks at the work of Petaluma creatives whose craft may be seen as tangential to the fine art world. In an effort to expand our definition and perception of the arts, we shine a light on these makers from our local community who create beauty and function in their work; taking art off the wall and highlighting connections between art and life. In a juxtaposition of objects, images and text, a story of methods and materials unfolds, illuminating both product and process.

Curated by Carin Jacobs.
