"The Beauty of Beasts" is a solo show by scratchboard artist Megan George. From her upbringing on a dairy farm to her career as a vet tech, animals have taught Megan the essence of what it means to be on this earth. Her work conveys the emotions and lessons that animals can teach us, in all their life stages.
"Everlasting Floral Design" is a solo show by Abby Zlotnick, owner of Juniper Farm, whose show celebrates the timeless beauty of locally-grown flowers through all-dried, everlasting arrangements and installations. Abby has been consistently inspired by farming since her first farming experience in 2012. Since then, Abby has made it her mission to share a slice of the Earth's greatest joys with her community.
Both exhibitions are generously sponsored by Land + Shelter Architecture Studio and Down Valley Brewing, and are on display through October 29. The gallery is open weekdays 10am-5pm

Monthly One-Off Intro to Wheel Workshops (teens and adults)Location: CCC’s New 12th Street Annex, 215 12th Street, Carbondale, CO
$65/person
The focus of this intro 2.5hr hands-on workshop is to introduce participants with the process of throwing on the wheel. Teens under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
We will cover centering, opening, and pulling clay pieces on the potter's wheel. Because this is just a 2.5 hour introductory experience, the intention is to focus on process. You won’t go home with any finished pieces, but you will have a great experience learning a new skill, getting dirty, and meeting new people. Careful! You might just leave wanting more…

With a guided meditation by Lisa, we align ourselves with our breath and body.
We then use watercolors in the Alla Prima style, a wet-on-wet technique.
We paint with water, drop the pigment in and watch the image appear.
Follow the breath
