    Calendar of upcoming events

    I’m getting ready for spooky season with a full list of events and markets.

    Save the dates to discover local markets and venues with unique art and fantastic vibes.

  • ๐ŸŒ™ MOONVEIL MARKET

    I’m excited to vend in Olympia for the first time!

    Iโ€™m joining a full lineup of local artists, makers, readers, healers, and mystics for Moonveil Market, hosted by The Gilded Creatrix Events! ๐ŸŒ™

    Inspired by Samhain and the thinning of the veil, Moonveil celebrates the mystical side of October while still making plenty of room for Halloween fun. Expect local art, handmade goods, crystals, apothecary offerings, jewelry, ritual tools, spiritual goods, and a thoughtfully curated community of small businesses.

    The market will also feature $35 tarot and oracle readings, a free raffle filled with offerings from participating vendors, costumes throughout the market, and The Gilded Wild open for even more to explore.

    Come wander, meet local creatives, discover something unexpected, and support the
    wonderfully unconventional businesses in our community.

  • Tacoma Life Drawing Group: Nude Figures Exhibition

    My Tacoma Life Drawing Group is displaying selected works, including 2 of mine, that were created during life-drawing sessions. I’ve been a part of the group for years and we don’t do showings often. It’s a rare chance to see spontaneous studies of the human figure, from a variety of artists, all in one place.

    We’ll have an informal opening reception this Saturday, January 24th, from 4 to 6 pm. There will be an official closing reception on March 11th, with refreshments.

    The show is being held at the Pierce College Fort Steilacoom Fine Arts Gallery. The gallery is located in the Olympic Building, next to parking lot A.๏ปฟ
