Rock, Paper, Scissors event at Henry Aug. 9
The Henry Gallery is celebrating ingenuity, creativity and originality at an event it calls Rock, Paper, Scissors from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 9, in the gallery’s Sculpture Court.
Ten local do-it-yourself-ers will showcase and sell dynamic and locally-made works at the “crafternoon.”
Visit Garek Druss at the DJ table to submit your rock ‘n roll requests and flip through copies of his new book of drawings, Heavy Teeth. Check out paintings and jewelry by Faryn Davis of Fernworks; handmade goods from Belltown boutiques Fancy, Schmancy, and Nancy; felted accessories and sculpture by Fern Renville; quilts by Quiltsryche; hand-painted trays, suitcases and objets by Tim Tinker; and coasters, tiles, and photos by Sol Haschemi.
At 3 p.m. in the café there will be a sneak preview of La Especial Norte’s fall issue, and an informal reading and brainstorming session with editor-artist Matthew Offenbacher. La Especial Norte is a new, local, handmade artist-generated “newsletter” that is available free of charge at many art venues around Seattle.
Admission to the Henry Gallery is always free to UW faculty, staff and students.
