We have a full selection of Barbara's prints, as well as new original paintings. Plus her 2020 calendar, books, and cards.
Alice Tersteeg is a Juneau artist who works in many mediums from watercolor to pastel to chalk. An established local artist and retired art teacher from the University of Alaska, Alice enjoys focusing on a couple different subjects and mediums each year. See her latest original paintings and drawings in November, including watercolors of flowers and acrylic landscapes.

His ivory jewelry uses ethically sourced fossilized walrus tusks from Saint Lawrence Island in Alaska, as well as fossilized mammoth ivory from Alaska. Each piece is hand-crafted to highlight the unique aspects of the particular ivory selection. Jim offers a range of work including small earrings all the way up to large pendants.
The opening reception took place on First Friday. Enjoy work from our featured artists all month long!

Inspired by the relationship between pottery and its user, she crafts porcelain mugs, bowls, platters, and other functional styles that can be used and enjoyed in everyday life. The white clay body used creates a fresh canvas that is then layered with a variety of etchings, under glaze techniques, decals, and gold accents.
During this pop-up show Munoz will be releasing a variety of new functional pieces made from a NEW clay body, and NEW glazes!
The pop-up show will be featured Thanksgiving weekend, from Friday November 29 to Sunday December 1. The show begins at 8am on Friday and goes through 5pm on Sunday. Meet Mercedes in person from 11am - 1pm on Friday November 29!
