Sasha Barrett was born and raised in Sumy, Ukraine, where he spent half of his childhood. He has been a resident artist at various clay studios across the country, as well as completing his MFA from the University of Montana in 2025. He states, “This exhibition is a portrayal of the last three-plus years of war on the soil of my homeland. Whether through the tactile properties of clay sculpture, the direct information delivery of documentary film, or actual artifacts and objects from the war, I hope this presentation of artwork leaves you with compassion and a deeper understanding of what Ukraine is fighting for.”

Eastern Washington University Gallery of Art is pleased to present the exhibition Conservation of Mass October 2 through November 13, 2025. This exhibition features ceramic and sculptural works by Spokane, WA based artist Tybre Newcomer. An opening reception and lecture by the artist will be held on Thursday, October 2nd at Noon.

Spokane Folklore Society's 30th annual celebration of folk music and dance, from traditional American, to ethnic expressions. Six stages and over 100 performers provide a panorama of the various cultures represented in the Inland Northwest. Music and dance workshops, children's crafts, and unique vendors make this a truly enriching experience. Spontaneous jam sessions throughout the venue add to the festive atmosphere.

Katie Frey is a Spokane artist who primarily paints landscapes and animals. She has been teaching and creating art in Spokane for over 15 years, painting with bright colors and expressive lines. The main subject matter is planned, but everything else is intuitive: abstract blocks of color, tangled plants, a landscape disintegrating into the abstract. Katie wants her art to be wild and invigorating; to look as spontaneous and joyful as it feels when she creates it.

In her own words, “My paintings explore storytelling through animals and their environment. I am continuously trying to expand, examine and capture my relationship to wildlife and their habitat; to create an open door for viewers to engage with the elements.”

Stop by the Liberty Gallery on First Friday Nov 7th from 5-8:30 to meet the artist and view Katie's beautiful paintings!

We want to believe that serendipity brings us together, but is that just a myth? How often do we travel parallel paths through the world without noticing? From an ailing woman who plans one final trip, to her daughter planning one great escape and her son falling prey to a prank gone wrong, this funny, intimate, and heartbreaking play explores the lives that may be happening just out of reach of our own.
