This April Pottery Place Plus is pleased to present the resin art of Karen Vollmer-Poseley and the sculpted wool of Mia Simonsen.

Karen finds the magic of the resin art form is in the process of watching each piece become unique in the final form ~ no two pieces are alike!

Mia's "Owl Song Feltery" creates botanicals out of wool ~ cactus and succulents were her first botanicals of choice, and more recently mushrooms and other fungi.

Karen's resin art and Mia's needle felting allows them to design botanicals year-round. Stop by PPP in April to view their "botanical art" ~ stop by PPP in the historic Liberty Building on First Friday April 3rd from 5-8pm to meet the artists!

Please join us on Friday, April 3rd, from 5 to 8, for the opening of "Cry Baby", an innovative and thought provoking new exhibit by Missoula artist Elisha Harteis. Elisha work, which focuses on depictions of children and animals, is both deeply engaging and unsettling, juxtaposing the quiet brutality of child abuse against the perceived, inherent innocence of children. This is going to be a significantly engaging exhibit by a wildly inventive and deeply perceptive artist. "Cry Baby" runs through the end of the month. D2 Gallery, 310 W. First Ave., Spokane, WA 99201

Restless young Tom Wingfield is torn between duty to family and his desire for a bigger life. His overbearing but loving mother, Amanda, clings to memories of her genteel past as a Southern belle. His sister Laura is painfully shy and finds comfort in her delicate collection of glass figurines. The family’s hopes begin to rise when Amanda urges Tom to bring home a gentleman caller for Laura, but reality can be more fragile than dreams.

By Tennessee Williams, one of the greatest 20th century American playwrights, THE GLASS MENAGERIE, an intimate and beautiful story about family, dreams and the weight of the past, resonates across generations with deeply relatable characters and emotions.

From small fleeting moments to a conscientious way of life, Joy is the thread that holds our lives together. More than just the silver lining we see on the edge of clouds, joy helps us find meaning, purpose, and the courage to take the next step.

Interpretations of Joy are represented in different forms of printmaking, such as intaglio and relief printing, from linoleum, wood carving, and letterpress printing by members of the Spokane Print & Publishing Center.

You can view the show this April in the Liberty Gallery (above Aunties Bookstore) ~ stop by on First Friday April 3rd from 5-8pm to meet the artists!
